    You could also see if anybody has a sff8087 breakout cable laying around so
    you could hook up the SATA port to the hotswap backplane :).

    Did you try installing a linux distribution to see if you could get its grub
    to boot off of the 2TB drive via the SAS HBA? If that works, it would rule
    out the hard drive itself as being faulty.
