Hi, I'm looking into getting another drive and have noticed I've run out of SATA ports (and EIDE, as it happens). So, I'm looking at a PCI card for SATA and went back to look at that Supermicro AOC-SAT2-MV8 card - I've had my eye on it for a few years, or perhaps it was a previous version of the same thing, I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm worried that it isn't the correct bus type for my computer. I'm confused by the PCI-X and PCIe types, and I don't have access to my computer over Christmas. My motherboard is some consumer level MSI board, and I just added an nVidia graphics card on the same bus (it used one of the two longer slots). Could someone with better knowledge of such things hazzard a guess? Thanks, Max.
