March 17, 20242 yr Rebuilding my 14 yr old unraid server because I don't want to keep upgrading my drives (running GIGABYTE AM2 MOBO with only 5 SATA ports, built to last!). Rather, I would like to start expanding my array with more drives. Wondering what the best option would be in terms of upgrading for minimum 10 drives. Should I just get a new case/MOBO/CPU etc? Seems like over kill since everything is working well. What would you guys do? Edited March 18, 20242 yr by sannitig
March 27, 20242 yr Author Bump. Should I get a SATA expander? If so, where do the extra power cables come from? How do people normally power 14 HDD with your average PSU? I have not seen a PSU with 14 HDD cables. Clearly I would love some assistance with rejigging my rig
