tucansam Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Anyone know of any low power mITX MBs with six SATA and a PCI slot? I can find ones with a PCIe slot but not standard PCI. Quote Link to comment
Biggen Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Anyone know of any low power mITX MBs with six SATA and a PCI slot? I can find ones with a PCIe slot but not standard PCI. Are motherboards even still manufactured with regular PCI slots? I thought those went the way of the Dodo in the mid-2000's. Just curious, but what are you plugging into a PCI slot anyway?

S80_UK Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Are motherboards even still manufactured with regular PCI slots? I thought those went the way of the Dodo in the mid-2000's. Just curious, but what are you plugging into a PCI slot anyway? There are plenty, especially quite a number in the mini-ITX form factor. But most of those do not have as many as 6 SATA ports. To the OP - old-style PCI will be slow for any add-on disk controller. I used to use an SIL3114 type card in a Gigabyte Atom board (GA-D510UD, GA-D525UD style). Parity checks were especially slow. Changing mother board to one with a PCI-e slot with a compatible disk controller made a big difference. Quote Link to comment
