120v through the chassis of my old server, trying to migrate to something else. SAS cable question.
TLDR - I need to upgrade the raid card in an old server. Backplane + RAID card = what cable do I need?

candidate RAID card = https://ebay.io/m/jt0aCC
Is this the cable I need? https://www.amazon.com/10Gtek-Internal-SFF-8643-SFF-8087-0-8-Meter/dp/B01AOS4RFQ?th=1
LongForm = I'm running a software RAID setup via Linux with double parity. Was running on an old PROAVIO 8 bay box, the company is long defunct. After some power fluctuations on the local grid, I got zapped and found 120v running through the chassis. Thankfully the drives all seem to be fine. All my equipment is on surge protectors and battery backups so no idea if the grid issues caused the problem or simply exposed the problem. Either way, the corrupt hardware has been disposed of.
I've got an old Dell T710 here with dual xeon and 256gb ECC RAM (DDR3 but it works and costs $0) The perc-6i has a max drive size of 2tb and can't do passthrough for software raid. The HBA330 seems to be a good replacement for the perc 6i. But, in order to marry the HBA330 with the T710's backplane, I need to make sure I get the right cable. Can someone please confirm that I need a SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD Cable?
