dabs Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 As my array grows I'm looking to upgrade my controller to a H330. Am I correct in assuming that also pairing it with the Intel RES2SV240 expander will cause a slight bottle neck (turbo write, parity checks)? Am I correct in thinking I need a 12gbps expander? If so would a HP card like this be suitable: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144782254892 Or would I need an Intel RES3TV360? My array consists of a few ssd's (on mobo sata controller for trim), a couple of nvme drives and 10 Toshiba Enterprise hdd's between 14 - 18tb. Any guidance would be appreciated as I dont want to make an expensive mistake. Regards Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 You can see some real world numbers with a few different expanders here: Quote Link to comment

Everything is clear now. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment
