Hello, as I have searched thought the forum I think I have made a mistake and bought the wrong Mini SAS to SATA cables.

I have this case with 2 x SFF-8087 Backplanes

And I bought these cables which I guess they don't work (the truth is I did not check the BIOS if the disks show up because the server is in an inconvenient place for me to reach)

So now in order not make the same mistake again I will first ask some pro's .

I plan to buy 2 of these cables now:

Let me know if that would be the correct choice or if it's not please recommend me which are the right ones.

Thank you in advance.

The new set of cables also looks wrong (but I'm looking at a translated page). 

 

Since the backplane has 8087 connectors and your motherboard has SATA connectors, you want reverse breakout cables, not forward

To make it simple, if the host-controller side is a SAS connector (SFF-8470) and the target side is SATA drives then you must always use a SAS to SATA Forward Breakout Cable.  If The Motherboard/host-Controller side are SATA connectors and the backplane is a SAS connector then you must always use a SAS to SATA Reverse Breakout Cable.  For SATA to SATA you just use a "SATA" cable as there is only one type, although they do come in different lengths. For SAS to SAS connections there is also just a single cable type.

 

Thank you very much sir, you just saved me some money. <3
