Hey guys, is it ok if I use a LSI HBA card for Pcie 1x slot? My 16x slot is being used by my 8x NIC and my motherboard does not support difurcation. I planned to have two LSI HBA card on my two 1x PCIE slot, is it safe to have drives running on two LSI HBA card?
You can indeed open up your PCI 1x slot with a soldering iron. or maybe via a cryptominer riser extension thing. 1x to 16x
