November 28, 20223 yr I found a crypto bitcoin miner's motherboard with 12 individual USB ports. Could this be used to bring in external USB hard drives into the array? Are USB hard drives supported or just the normal SATA ones? Thanks.
November 28, 20223 yr Able yes, but highly discouraged due to USB being unreliable/prone to disconnections and drives dropping from the array is no good at all. Edited November 28, 20223 yr by Kilrah
