The latter ports only run at 3G, but they do support SAS devices too,
and they come with cables that have the required SAS connectors:
a SAS “male” on a SAS storage device combines the
power and data connectors into one solid “block” or “key way”:
This is designed to prevent a SAS device from plugging
into a SATA backplane, whereas a SATA device can still
plug into a SAS backplane.
