Amid the heaps of Z87 chipset motherboards which have already been around for a while, there can only be one that rises from the top with its delicacy and perfection. The long wait has ended, here com... ASRock Z87 Extreme11/ac Comes with 22 SATA ports
That's a LOT of SATA/SAS ports. I though my board was bad with 14 (from what the X79 chipset shoulda been, C606), but that's just insane.
a 4770K, 4 780ti in SLI and 22 SSD in stripe... might be nice for play BF4 lol more seriously i like the extreme 11 line because of the SAS controler with it you can make real RAID, far more powerfull than the chipset one.
Mite taking some Saving But here is my new Porn Server Motherboard should easily get 50-60TB of space.
First, software raid is better than hardware raid. second i only see one way so many hdds may be needed, its for some record or very fast boot.
That's some wishful thinking. The internet is like 80% porn in total. Pretty sure the amount is in exabyte territory by now.
Im using server mobo with integrated LSI SAS chip in jbod mode with software raid now for my anime collection. It is the best raid type as of this day, preventing silent data damage and similar. In short, it prevents most of problems assuming you use server memory. Hardware raid is far behind.

I think companies should start announcing compatible cases with the thing that looks like a "motheboard"...
/repoen Yeah, the CaseLabs MAGNUM TX10 looks like a candidate. Also possibly a 12U or 24U Server rack. /thread
