Sorry to revive an older post, but I came across this one after a quick search... also need an 8 port sata card for my server, I'm using Windows 10. I've been running a Highpoint card I wound up with for several years, but it appears to be throwing some errors and probably time to replace it...
Same as OP, I also just need a simple JBOD solution, no RAID necessary. Just need it to be reliable (of course, right? haha), handle large (10+ TB discs), and have decent/recent driver support.
Any suggestions? Is the Supermicro card recommended a few years ago still a reasonable bet?
