ASUS Hyper m.2 Card, slap all 4 in, 16TB in RAID0.
Remember that your mobo needs to support PCIe bifurcation, otherwise it will be a 4TB RAID0 party
Wow. Any reviews on that? How many PCIe lanes can it handle?
I have these exact drives and have them on an ASUS card passed through to true NAS then formatted as 2 mirrored pairs. I throw all my container database and transcode and such volumes on there
Is that better than using Proxmox?
I have 4x - 2TB nvme on Asus HyperX M.2 Gen 4 card in my Synology DS3622xs+ as second nvme only volume in RAID10 for fast files sync and storage using Synology Drive.
Have another 4x -2TB nvme coming that I will put on same Asus AIC as 8TB RAID0 array on my Windows workstation for super fast scratch disk for my database projects.
How did you get that synology to let you use them as storage drives? I thought any nvme was cached only except for their new 23 model. I’d love to be able to do this on a 2422 if possible
My 3622xs+ is not a "real" Synology box. It's a custom built Xpenology running ARC loader. By using 007revad's scripts, I'm able to create M.2 volume. Pretty sure you can run Dave's script on any Synology boxes. Go to his Github to get instructions.

What Base hardware did you build it on? Or is it a vm?
