Keint Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Hello, I m running out of Sata port on my X9DR3-F Supermicro MB. I m looking for a 4 port SATA 3 extension card.... I saw the 9211-8i SATA3.0, but I don t need 8 port, I only need 4. Do you have any suggestion for a 4 ports? I plan to plug 8TB hard drive on it... Thanks ! Cheers ! Quote Link to comment

JonathanM Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Marvell is compatible with unraid 5.x and older. Probably not going to work well with 6.X Hundreds of threads on here with marvell controller issues. 1 Quote Link to comment
rutherford Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Oh gees. Found someone talking about this LSI SAS9211-8i card on reddit. Looks promising, and cheaper on eBay search. Quote Link to comment
