Yeah, better example. Paper towels were the first thing that came to mind lol.
So in your case, are you sure it said the seller was HPE? Because there are two things on an Amazon listing that matter:
(1) brand - this is listed under the description. This is usually going to be correct, so in your case it will say "HP" as the brand or maybe "HPE" I'm not sure how they brand their stuff. (example listing that I quickly found). You get this brand association by listing a product and simply putting the brand name in the listing. It's not hard to fake.
(2) seller - this is in the right-hand side under the "buy buttons". This is the reseller and could be almost anyone. Theoretically these are approved resllers/dealers for the product, but that is by no means a guarantee.
For example, my company (let's call it "ABC Technologies") has 300+ approved dealers/resellers of my products. The brand (1) will be labeled as "ABC Technologies" but any one of those 300+ dealers could list our products on Amazon (2). Also -- and this is where the huge problem is -- literally anyone else could list the product as well... you don't have to be one of the 300+ approved dealers.
You could get a SAS raidcard and cables all for ~$27 on amazon. that would give you 8 ports with those cables and if you wanted you could use a SAS expander cable to get more.
OR
Get a $20 4 port SATA raidcard and go with that.
FYI you can plug a SATA hard drive into a SAS raidcard just not the other way around just like how you can fit a small box inside a bix box but not the other way around.
My reccomendation would be to get the SAS raidcard so you have a little expansion room if you want more drives.
