You normally want a external raid card or hba for uses with a sas jbod.

 

But looks like you want a sff8087 to sff 8088 cable.

What sas drives do you have? that enclosure is 2.5 only, so its pretty limited drive wise.

 

That enclosure is gonna be really loud, so you don't want that in a room your in.

 

Id just get a cable and put the drives in your case.

What disks do you have? That enclosure will only fit 2.5 in drives.

 

How many tb do you need? Those cheap sas drives are used, and have a lot of hours on them normally.

Id really suggest just getting a sata drive. There normally about the same price(esp for new), and then you don't need a card and enclsoure.

What drive? 2.5 or 3.5in?

 

You should probably do some more research about drive sizes and enclosures.

Then that sas jbod won't work as its 2.5 only.

 

Look for something like a ds4246 or a sa120

Nope, that enclosure is 2.5 only.

 

Also you want a hba here, not a raid card normally.

 

Whats your budget?

Does that include shipping? THe normal 12bay sas enclosure are more than that unless you get lucky or can find them locally.

 

But really, don't spend this money on chia mining, the chance of getting anything is way too low.

What server do you have laying around?

 

You shouldn't need to buy hardware to buy chia, you just need a few hundred gigs of free disk space.
