Hello,
Bought a spare super cheap used 3TB drive a year ago, and just figured out it’s not a SATA but a SAS drive.
How fucked am I? What can I do more than using it as a paperweight?
Cheers!

bullshit. drives should be backed up if the data is important which makes refurb and used drives perfectly acceptable. raid and good backups exists for a reason and don’t leave you to rely on one single drive to live forever.
if you’re buying large drives and not using a system with raid functionality, you’re setting yourself up for failure, new drive or not. no crying you were warned.
