Hi guys.
I want to connect Seagate Cheetah ST3450857SS to my mobo Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Soc Force.

I found a couple of solutions.
So...

1 adapter LINK
2 expansion card LINK
3 HBA LINK - what cable I should use? All parts will be bought on eBay.

Now my drives are:
Crucial MX100 and SAMSUNG MZVPW256HEGL

Please help. I am not familiar with SAS drives and how to connect them to modern mobos.
Guys, if any of you know a better solution please very much, share it with me.
HDD is new. I know that this drive will be noisy, but I love the sounds of a working HDD.
Probably this one will be like Boeing engine.

The reason why I want to buy this drive is of nostalgic nature. :) I get all information about the controller (different forum), so I won't buy this HDD.
