    Has anyone heard of the HL8 storage server by 45Drives? Seems pretty interesting for running Jellyfin.
    https://store.45homelab.com/presale/hl8

    It's a small ITX server with 8 3.5in hard drive bays.

    Motherboard: GIGABYTE B550I AORUS PRO AX 1.0
    CPU: Ryzen 5 5500GT or Ryzen 7 5700G
    Memory: Up to 64GB ECC

    There's no GPU, but it seems like you should be able to fit an Arc A380.

    They even have different options: buy just the case, case+power, full build.

    I'm kiiiinda thinking of buying this... except I'm not sure if I should just buy the case and migrate my existing hardware or if I need to buy more parts.

    My current motherboard has two SATA ports that I connected from the motherboard to my two drives.
    I've never built anything with more than 2 drives.
    How can they get 8 drives working with that motherboard?

    Seems like this should have no problems running Jellyfin, right?
