Notes

M.2 (M-key) to SAS (Serial Attached SCSI): Both are storage connectors but may use different interfaces. An adapter or enclosure may bridge them, but speed will be limited by the slower interface. The M.2 (M-key) (Storage) and SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) (Storage) share the same connector family.
