M.2 Sata PCIE Card w/ RAID

[JamesTheGreat]

I have a bunch on older 32GB M.2 M+B Sata SSDs sitting around...I'm looking for a PCIE card / adapter that will allow me to combine storage space from lets say 4-6 of these, then use them as one large drive, WITHOUT tying up a sata port for EACH SSD...

 

I've seem something similar that'll use 2 or 4 M.2 NVME PCI SSD's over a singe PCIe slot, which has a built in raid controller..

 

Even if the board for my m.2 sata ssd's has 4 M.2 sata slots and only 1 Sata cable connector out, I'd be fine with that...For starters

 

If anyone knows of anything like that, or even something close, Please let me know or post a link or something.

 

Thanks

James

Delock go you covered, Delock PCI Express Card > 4 x internal M.2 Key B with RAID.

Or, Delock 2.5″ Converter SATA 22 pin > 2 x M.2 with RAID with Enclosure.

For the cost of the quad adapter, you could buy a proper 1TB SSD though.

Yeah @OP should get rid of the old small ones, even for redundancy sake. Just sell all the small ones.

Yeah, that would be the Ideal solution, however these things are only worth like $10-$15 on ebay before shipping, so selling all of them wouldn't get me cash. 

And, the size of the old M.2 Driver wasn't really my point. 

The idea behind this post, like a lot of my posts, Isn't to find a better way to do things, or even the way that someone else wants to do things.  It's because I'm looking for a piece of hardware, and either didn't have much luck searching for it myself, or what I found seemed so out there in price that I couldn't believe my own eyes..

 

With that said, I am really thankful for the time, advice and Ideas that everyone contributes to my posts like this.
