So my Proxmox homeserver is running out of storage and all of my sata ports are taken, so I guess getting more sata ports is the best solution, but I have no clue which ones are good. I’m fine with paying a little more if that means having good drivers and a stable experience. I plan to use it with harddrives so performance does not need to be top notch.

I came across the ASM1166 that I can get with six ports for under 40€ is it any good?

Thanks for any help

    IBM 1015. There is no substitute. Running over 100TB with one for years and it’s rock solid. Easy to flash to IT mode and supports both SATA and SAS. Usually about $20-40 on eBay.
