Hi to everybody, I'm trying to recycle a lot of hdd and I want to attach it to my Hp microserver gen 8. So I thought to buy the Intel RES2SV240 to expand the microserver. I know that the port is only internal, but I don't care about this, I would let cables came out from empty slim ODD, not really chic solution, but no problem is hidden inside the cabinet.
The problem are 2: HP microserver gen 8 has only one slot pci-e && this slot is low-profile. Then my choice for this Intel.
So, the question is: "Can I use the Intel RES2SV240 alone in my server to attach hdd, without any controller, HBA or anything else?".
And if true, I need to something else to connect the Intel RES2SV240 to my server? I don't know, something like adapters or similar for data?
If the problem is RAID, no worry, I don't care, Jbod is my target.
Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for my poor english.
