Hi!

Can someone please tell me if the 15,000 RPM SAS disks are suitable as bootdisks?

Do they need their own controlercard/cable or will they attach to SATA connectors/power? Conflicting info and images has me confused...

Thanks in advance

Any disk is suitable for bootdisk, just depends on what your booting. Yes they need a controller card, target\host cables, and depending on the controller set, you'll need a some power adapters. Basically the same song and dance as SCSI, just way faster.
