Hi, I'll use Asus Sabertooth MB for FreeNAS. It has 6 SATA connectors, numbered 1 to 6 (not 0-5).
While reading board's manual I found this table stating that SATA#0 and SMBus controller share an IRQ.
I made a test setup with 2 HDDs in SATA1 and SATA2 connectors, works OK for two days.
I plan to utilise all 6 connectors at first stage, can I do it safely or should I install PCIe HBA controller to avoid that IRQ share?
