Quasi DAS repurposed box


Recommended Posts

My current itx case is full with 6 drives and I need to expand. I have an old 8 bay sans digital USB 2 case that gave up the ghost some time back. The nas mobo has a pci-e 1x 2.0 slot free. My thought is to use one of these https://www.amazon.com/ELEGIANT-PCI-Cable-Express-Extension/dp/B01GWMUK7W to move the pcie slot to sans digital box then install an 8 port sata controller in it. Anyone tried anything like this or have opinions one way or another?
