Greetings all;
I've just ordered some stuff to rebuild or expand my Raid setup.
This 16 port sata-III pci-e card:
<https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09L184W57?smid=A2H818KAC5I4D1&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp&th=1>
along with a bigger drive cage, cables and such and some gigastone
2T drives to make a raid big enough to run amanda. And maybe put a
new card in front of my 2T /home raid10.
Is everything going into one chassis? Have you considered an
external drive chassis?
Got one of those coming too. Small possibility it will fit it the
bottom of this huge and old tiger direct tower. Because the radiator
for the 6 core i5 is too tall, it hasn't had a side cover on it in
years. If not, theres a 3 3.5" cage at the bottom of the stack I can
stuff with 2 SSD's per bay slot. A hidey place, front cover is solid,
but cooling might be a problem. If worse comes to worse I could
shoe-goo a 120x15 to the side of the cage.
This is what I meant:

Call me cheap, my choice is diy assembly, SS stampings you put together,
all drive brackets and a dozen cables and a 5 drive power splitter, $30.
Less than 5% of the price of that nice looking box.
.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
