Hi All,

I am planning to build a home server with 36 drives. I am planning to use Broadcom 6400-16i HBA. When I look for SFF-8643 to SATA cables, I see that it can connect to 4 SATA drives. Which means I can connect to 4x4=16 drives. What am I missing? Do I need to use an expander card? Does anyone have any recommendations?
