Failed and Degraded disks

Could a splitter like this work?

I was thinking more like this one and you have one for each Molex connector.

MCIO is the new connector for PCIe5.0. Those on your motherboard expose PCIe5.0 lines from the CPU, so they are strictly PCIe—no SATA, no SAS. "Mini SAS HD" is a fancy name for SFF-8643 (and it is arguably friendlier and easier to remember than a SFF number…); it does NOT promise anything as to what is carried by the cable: PCIe, SATA, or SAS (the latter would require an actual SAS controller).

The MCIO cable would work for NVMe SSDs, if plugged to a suitable NVMe backplane.
Your SAS SSDs need to be plugged to a SAS HBA. So no luck here.

Ended up returning the spinning disks and getting NVMes instead. Switched to a different chassis to accommodate the new interface. So far so good...
