sch1308 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I have the following server I bought from ebay but it is showing it's age (I stream 5-10 clients on my plex). Is there a mobo and cpu combo that will still work with the sata cards? I can't find any compatibility info online. I have 20 drives so I need both sata cards. Case: Supermicro SC846TQ-R900 Motherboard: Supermicro H8DME-2 CPUs: AMD Opteron 2419 SATA cards: Supermicro AOC-SAT2-MV8 USB3 card: Highpoint RocketU 1144C Supermicro AOC-SIM1U remote management card Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Very difficult, if not impossible, to find a current board with two PCI-X slots, best bet is to replace them with one or two LSI HBAs, also since those controllers don't work with many recent devices. Quote Link to comment
