Can I Run The Sata Drive Thru The Sas Controller? Yes, you can typically run a SATA drive through a SAS controller, as SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is backward-compatible with SATA (Serial ATA). This means SAS controllers can read and operate SATA drives, but not vice versa—SATA controllers can't run SAS drives. However, keep in mind that while this works on a hardware level, some features specific to SAS may not be available when using SATA drives. Additionally, performance may be limited to SATA drive capabilities.
