unraidbiff Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Hi all new here, just venturing in to a home server and decided on unraid, bought a 24 bay rackmount chassis and figured i'd use an old motherboard with 8 onboard sata ports and 2x 8port HBAs. the case is a logic case sc4324 which has 6 sff-8087 internal ports. i have connected a cable from here to the 8 seperate sata boards on the MB (Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero Wi-Fi) but it wont detect the drives? does anyone know if you can connect these onboards ports in this manner please? many thanks!
