schoondoggy Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I need to pack away the 2.5" drives, but I do have 10 drives running in the MS Gen10. I have Windows 10 Pro running on a M.2 Crucial SATA SSD and a Toshiba M.2 NVMe PCIe mounted on the top PCIe card in the picture below: The bottom card is a Marvell based 4 port SATA PCIe x1 card, that is running four 2.5" drives. When buying cards for a MS Gen10 be sure they are not taller than the bracket. Here are the cards I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BNWFFNK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01464550K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still working on it. I could stack two on a side bracket, but I want to leave that open for a 15mm 2.5" drive. Now that the 2TB Seagates come in 7mm 2.5", I think I can fit four in the ODD bay with two stacks of two drives. Cabling is always an issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
