sas Adapter not working

[Afornell]

Hi, I have an nmve 128gb storage device but I want to use it to save some information as an external device, so I bought an adapter from NVME to SAS (accidentally because I thought it was from NVME to SATA) so I bought an adapter from SAS to SATA and then use the adapter from SATA to USB type C and the computer doesn’t read it, and the adapter of SATA to USB C works because i use it to read other internal hard drives directly, so what’s your suggestion?

Doesnt work like that.

You cant just plug a PCIe device into SATA and have it magically work, the signals are not compatible.

 

SAS has an implementation that carries native PCIe signals (U.2), which is why these adapters exist.  The cheap SAS to USB adapters only work with the SATA based implementation of SAS.

NVME drives need NVME USB adapters and are NOT compatible with Sata adapters. This is what you need. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VVNHZHH/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_db7LDb462NP4J

 

Now, if you could find a U.2 to USB adapter and skip the SAS to SATA, conversion, that would work. But because you're converting from NVME to U.2, then U.2 to SAS, then SAS to SATA, and your SAS to SATA is just a pin adapter, not smart, the SATA adapter can't actually read your U.2 data.
