I have one 4 port SYBAUSA SATA PCI express expansion card installed in my machine. Unfortunately in the low profile chassis, two of the ports are effectively un-usable. So, I thought I'd be clever and just get two more 2 port cards (SI-PEX40075). One to cover the blocked one and one for future expansion. I didn't pay enough attention to the hardware recommendations and can't seem to get these working with FreeNAS. So I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions on low-profile SATA expansion cards.
I saw the recommendation in the sticky'ed thread about the IBM ServeRAID card, but I am thinking that I don't need something that heavy duty.
