Don't know if somebody mentioned it before, but the MicroServer's
internal drive bays use SAS connectors and they are all plumbed into the
motherboard using a single SFF-8087 connector, so if you get an internal
SAS HBA into the PCI-e x8 slot on the server, you can just unplug the
SFF-8087 from the motherboard and plug it into your HBA. Here you can
also see the SFF-8087 cable plugging into the motherboard left of the
drive tray: http://tinyurl.com/npa6kow
