IcyDock 5.25 bay to 4,6, or 8 2.5inch SSDs, how to connect?

I don’t know how far you are into your purchase, but have you considered the ICY DOCK ToughArmor MB998IP-B? You will need at most two breakout cables.

I’m using it with a pair of cables connecting 4 SATA to 1 Mini SAS HD in reverse. If the Broadcom HBA 9500-8i Tri-Mode Storage Adapter is already a final decision, you’ll need a SFF-8654 (SlimSAS) to 2 × 4 SFF-8643 (Mini SAS HD) cable. See: Broadcom’s Cable Guide for RAID Controller Cards and HBAs (126.7 KB zipped PDF) (original link: https://docs.broadcom.com/doc/12354774).
