Anyone using these? http://www.roc-noc.com/product.php?productid=55&cat=0&page=1
It is getting much harder to find a board with this many PCI slots. Maybe Mikrotik needs to make a PCI Express card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121412 It even has a PATA / IDE port for you DOM. Why use a hard drive that has moving parts. It will eventually fail. Anyone know the bus limitations on PCI? Can a PCI port even transfer 4 gigabits per second?
