Hi, > The curiosity is killing me! What do you need > 6+ SATA ports for? I have a 60GB SSD that I use for root, along with a 240GB I use for a Windows VM. The others are 4TB disks I use for my photography and Videos/torrents. The sixth is the BR-DVD I needed two more 4TB to mirror together for data to bring to the colo instead of having to transfer it to our production systems over the Internet. It also became an exercise to learn whether the onboard Intel is as fast as one of the LSI/RAID/SAS controllers, and perhaps it would be faster to use one of those instead of the onboard Intel. > It has an M.2 NVMe slot (which uses four lanes of PCIe) Aren't those "disks" very expensive? And limited capacity? I also don't currently have any, so would have to buy them to replace what I have.
