so, I bought one of the lenovo ts440's and have already upgraded quite a bit. I have a raid 10 with an LSI 9260-8i and an intel i350-t4. The only issue I am having with my system, is that I would really really like the main OS SSD to be mirrored in a raid 1 type situation, but I don't want to sacrafice too much speed. Unfortuantely, the motherboard only has a pcie 2.0 x1 and a legacy pci slot left. I've been looking into USB 3.0 2.5in raid 1 enclosures to possibly mount internally and port multipliers that support sata 3 so my 2 mirrored ssd's will be able to maintain their speeds while gaining mirroring.
Having a hard time finding anything though. Lots of stuff for Sata 2, so i'm curious, has anyone else seen any or come up with any solutions for this kind of problem? I'd prefer an internal solution if possible. I have an empty 5.25 and like 3 or 4 PCI slots that the motherboard doesn't reach.
Thanks,
Justin
