Since the hilarious crash of the cryptocurrency hardware market, you can buy multi-X1 boards and risers for cheap. I'm curious of your thoughts on using a combination of PCIE X1 to SATA adaptors and X1 10Gbit NICs on hardware like this? Anyone tried it?
For example: 18 slot X1 board, 15 risers and 15 2-port SATA adaptors, 1,2, or 3 10GBit (RJ45) NICs + power supplies could be less than $600.
