bombz Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I have a build that I am quite happy with that uses a SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8. However, my friends unraid system that he uses has a ... Socket : AM3 A880G+ Ver. 6.x http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=492#spec Which that board does not have a PCI-E 4x slot for the SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8. Anyone have a recommendation what expansion card he could use for his board that would let him expand his array ? PROMISE SATA300 TX4 PCI SATA II (3.0Gb/s) 4-Port Adapter http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816102065 I thought of this, but I think that product is discontinued... Thanks for any suggestions.

JorgeB Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 If the pcie 16x slot is available the SASLP should work there. Quote Link to comment
tdallen Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Yeah, you can put an PCIex x4 or x8 card in an x16 slot, no need to drop back to a PCI based card like the one you linked. Quote Link to comment
