Second-hand 24G SAS cards are starting to reach an interesting price point, and I'm toying with the idea of replacing my ancient SAS 6G disk shelf (that has an expander in it, so it's a complete tragedy). Sadly *e cards are still stupid expensive (as they've always been), so the usual trick of getting a $30 backplate and stealing *i lanes is back on the menu.
However, despite a few hours of bashing my head against various search engines (not to mentioned ebay and Alibaba), I'm having trouble finding anything useful that's specifically marked SFF-8674 (the spec for external SAS 24G) - everything seems to be labeled external miniSAS HD (SFF-8644), I do keep tripping over "SAS 24G rated" SFF-8644 backplates, cables etc., but they seem to be mostly from chinkshit suppliers (so likely bullshit). I literally can't find ANY backplate that's specifically marked SFF-8674.
What the hell am I missing here? Have I finally achieved clinical retardation?

You'll find that their home-brewed Elbrus ISA (which they use extensively in government) not having a Windows port has far more to do with it than your projected Microsoft Derangement Syndrome.
