Asrock Rack E3C246D2I and 8 SATA drives


Recommended Posts

Has anyone been able to make this board work out of the box with an Oculink cable (such as this one: https://store.supermicro.com/supermicro-50cm-oculink-to-4-sata-cable-cbl-sast-0933.html)? Was there anything extra needed (jumpers on the board, software issues, etc) or was it just plug and play? Looking to build an array with at least 8 drives (maybe even 10 with the cache drives).

 

Otherwise, any suggestion for an add-on card to hook up more drives (something like up to 16 ideally)? Maybe from LSI? Something that will work well with Unraid obviously.
