Oh yeah it def had the SAS Backplane wires, I’d switched to using the SATA on board since it doesn’t have the same HD capacity limits. I think it was a max of 2tb with the backplane and I’m using a couple of 10tbs. Maybe their is some weird bios that requires it to be on board?
Do you mean the card with the SODIMM next to the CPU? that is a raid card, and it looks like it is responsible for the front drive bays.
