Does the PE R515 have both SATA and SAS ports?

I'm fairly new to servers. My R515 came with 1 500 GB SATA Drive. Can I swap it out and plug in a SAS hard drive? Does it have the physical connection for SAS? If not how hard/expensive would it be to convert it to SAS?

To be more specific, I have an image for a RHEL 5 server from another R515 that uses SAS drives, whereas the one I'm transferring the image to has a SATA drive. Using clonezilla.

Our servers will run either SAS, SATA or SSD drives.  If adding drives, use Enterprise class drives and not consumer class drives.
