    ascarneiro got a reaction from Antoineki in 8 port sata card for Windows 10   
    Hello,
     
    I need add a 8 port sata card on my plex server, im using Windows 10.
     
    I looked at Supermicro card, but the product page dont say anything about Windows 10 drivers.
     
    Anyone know a stable 8 port sata card, compatible with Windows 10  and with SMART support and allow drives save energy (stand by)? Im using StableBit DrivePool and Scanner.
     
    I dont need RAID, just HBA.
     
    I know about the M1015 cards and similars with same chip, but these card need firmware crossflash and I do not want to stay depending on whether an update works or not, I prefer a solution plug-and-play.
     
    Any advice?
     
    Thank

    Hello
     
    Thank everyone for the advices.
     
    After some months of research, I purchased one Adaptec HBA 1000-8i,  this is a 12Gb SAS card with 8 port.  This card arrived today and is running now on my PLEX server with drivepool + snapraid.
     
    This card have native windows 10 drivers, no issues to install, easy firmware update - im very satisfied.
     
    Now Im looking for a SAS Expander - I saw the HP SAS Expander 24 port, really low cost (30 - 40 US dollars on ebay) - this will be my next buy.
     
    For now I have 8 port on SAS card and 6 port on motherboard - with the SAS expander I can full my LIAN LI PCD8000.  
     
    Thank
