that is a fiber channel disk so you will need a fiber channel host bus adapter

lot of them on ebay cheap these days

watch to match one to the suitable available slot on a desktop rig

I would try getting a pci-e FC HBA and directly attaching the disk shelf (with those FATA disks installed) to the computer via 1 or 2 fc cables. Or do you no longer have that disk enclosure? if so you might be out of luck, i don't where you can get an FC to SATA converter board.
