Pstark Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I looking into getting adding a PCIE expansion to add a SAS drive to my server and I think I won’t have the ability due to having to being maxed on PCIE devices already. I currently have: GPU 2x NVME drives 10GBE NIC My question is how many PCIE devices do you have in your setup? Is there something I’m not thinking that would allow me to add this? Setup: 10700k Z590-V 4 SATA drives (2 array and 2 UD) 2 nvme (cache pool) Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 There's no standard max number of PCIe devices, depends on the board, check the manual to see if any PCIe slots are shared with other devices, if not you can have as many devices as there are slots. Quote Link to comment

I’m really just asking what a typical setup consists of in terms of PCIe devices. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 It really depends, I have servers with 1 or 2, others with 6 or 7. Quote Link to comment
