Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice so I can use some of my existing hardware to build out my server with a ton of storage. My motherboard is an ITX ASUS x670E-I with only one PCIE slot (that already has a GPU in it) and only two SATA ports.

I have struggled to find info about bifurcation, but my ideal would be to bifurcate the PCIE and use some LSI boards to add a ton of SATA drives.

Does anyone know of hardware that would work well for this use case? I currently just have an M.2 boot drive in the motherboard, and I’m using Debian.

Just looking to know if anyone has experience with a build like this.
