    Card recommendation with 24 internal SAS/SATA ports for ESXi and FreeNAS

    New member Q

    I’m new but have been lurking for about a month or so take it easy on me... I just bought an Intel S2600CP4 with the hopes of replacing the aging dual AMD 2419 processors and motherboard in my 4U Supermicro FreeNAS server.
