blueman Posted August 8, 2018 Share #1 Posted August 8, 2018 Hi all, I'm looking to add an extra drive to my NAS but have used all the 6 onboard SATA ports from my motherboard. Are there any particular SATA expansion cards that are known to be working and supported by XPEnology? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Polanskiman Posted August 8, 2018 Share #2 Posted August 8, 2018 The problem with your question is that it is vague. Compatibility of hardware usually depends on the loader you are using and the modules it contains to boot the said hardware. So have a search on the appropriate loader version tutorials and check the modules contained in those loader. That should give you the beginning of an answer.

Hi all,
I'm looking to add an extra drive to my NAS but have used all the 6 onboard SATA ports from my motherboard.
Are there any particular SATA expansion cards that are known to be working and supported by XPEnology?
