HP SAS drive compatibility (with pic)

Vincy Boy · Aug 26, 2009, 09:44 PM

I dunno if this deserves a new thread but I think so

so here goes. I have two HP SAS drives and I wanna know if these would work with only HP devices. These are the model mumbers: DF300BABUF and DF300A4950. Just wanna know before I go buying a SAS controller for $200 only to find out things won't work. Thanks
