I've been searching a das enclosure for a long time with no luck.
I can't afford a rack enclosure so i'ill go for the well known silverstone ds 380.
My "server" is a hp Z620.
I've found the parts i need except for the sas part.
I need an hba with external port which will match with mobo.
I need an expander which will match with the hba.
I will put 8 spinners in the hotswap bays and i have 3 sata ssd that lie around so i'd like to maximize bandwith.
Would you have suggestion for a hba/expander couple ?
The expander doesn't have to have an external port i can use a bracket with 8088 to 8087
The hba has to have external port (not much room left in my z620).
I was thinking to lsi 9207-8e hba. For the expander i've not find the right model which has not issue with sata disks and can function at sata 3 speed.
