SAS controller

[Tom Buskey]

After you get the data off, you can use a SAS card with SATA drives.  You
can't mix SAS and SATA on the same controller.  SAS has speed and
redundancy benefits over SATA.

I've liked LSI controllers.  They're well supported and supply a number of
OEMs.  You can often get the re branded cards on eBay for less.
