rikdegraaff Posted October 16, 2015 Author Share Posted October 16, 2015 Thanks for all the replies. I've ordered one cable, at an other company (because the one at my link was not the cheapest shop...). The cable should come in tomorrow Thanks all for the help, and If I have problems tomorrow, I'll be back in this topic! Quote Link to comment
ThePhotraveller Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Guys am adding sata addon with 3 sata extensions. I feel this is a generic board. This is what is available in the main market around me. Will this work or make it work? Quote Link to comment

There are many reports lately of the Marvell cards dropping drives in unRAID and they can have issues with VMs. Whether or not you have any VMs, it is best to avoid Marvell. The recommended cards are LSI HBAs like the 9211-8i, 9207-8i, 9300-8i or clones such as IBM M1015 or Dell H310, the latter cross flashed to IT mode. Many can be found on eBay.

ThePhotraveller Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Good suggestion though. Ebay is dead in india. Not sure if i can buy from the international ebay side due to shipping issues. Its hard time for me to find a card here. People done even understand HBA 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment
Alexander Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 If you have the money I guess the LSI SAS 9305-24i is the one to get. This is a 8x PCI-E 3.0 card. It is in the Hardware Compatibility list: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hardware_Compatibility#PCI_SATA_Controllers Works out of the box according to the list. Price ~$ 600 All new good running out of the box with unraid controller cards, even for fewer drives are probably about the same price or just a little cheaper. Quote Link to comment
jbebad Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I am looking for a non-raid SATA III 6gb with a min of 6 or 8 ports. It must be supported by Windows Server 2019 or Windows Server 2016. Any help would be grateful. Quote Link to comment
