Hi,
I am searching high and low for a sata contoller card, I need it to control 8 HDD's, preferably I would like it to be fast (6gb), so far I have got one that supports 10 but it only has two ports to connect too(????).
I got another which has 16 ports to connect too BUT it is too big to fit in any slots on the Mobo (Gigabyte GA EX58)
So now I am back to square one and have seen this:-
HighPoint RocketRAID 2680 SAS RAID Controller 8-ch SAS/SATA, Support SATA Raid 0,1,5,10,JBOD, PCI-E x4, NCQ, Low Profile
Does the 8 ch (I guess means channel) mean I can connect the 8 drives too it.
Any info would be appreciated.
TIA
