glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I'm looking for something like the PCI usb card which have an internal port on them apart from I would like to it to support SD cards Instead anybody seen anything?
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 hmm tricky why not an internal usb card like you've seen with a small sd card reader plugged into it? Ben
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Or a SATA to SD card adaptor: SLSA5001 SATA to SD Adapter Ben
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 hmm tricky why not an internal usb card like you've seen with a small sd card reader plugged into it? Ben Its for an Open-E san. I don't trust USB devices for the boot partition anymore. It isn't possible to use Sata one due to the chassis.
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Could you not add an internal sata card and then use a sata to sd converter? Ben
Oaktech Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 internal USB card and one of these? Kingston MobileLiteG2 Card reader ( external ) - Hi-Speed USB - SD Memory Card, Memory Stick PRO Duo, microSD, SDHC Memory Card, Memory Stick Micro (M2), microSDHC, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo - PC, Mac
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 One of these? Not unless it's a laptop he's building or the chassis has a mini pci-e slot or can adapt that to a full size pci-e slot. Ben

Kingston MobileLiteG2 Card reader ( external ) - Hi-Speed USB - SD Memory Card, Memory Stick PRO Duo, microSD, SDHC Memory Card, Memory Stick Micro (M2), microSDHC, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo - PC, Mac Nope as that's basically what I suggested he doesn't want to go usb -> to anything Ben 1
Oaktech Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 One of these? Oh, thats cool... I have a spare slot for that in my laptop... Hello class 10 SD card to boot windows from...
X-13 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Not unless it's a laptop he's building or the chassis has a mini pci-e slot or can adapt that to a full size pci-e slot. Ben I was mostly asking to make sure I was thinking of the right thing.
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 I was mostly asking to make sure I was thinking of the right thing. Thats the kind of thing. That will fit in a normal PCI slot won't it? I wonder if I can screw it into a full high plate. Oh, thats cool... I have a spare slot for that in my laptop... Hello class 10 SD card to boot windows from... You will kill the SD card i think - too many writes.
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Thats the kind of thing. That will fit in a normal PCI slot won't it? I wonder if I can screw it into a full high plate. Just realised mount points are on the wrong side!
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 What about a PCI-e SSD? Ben It would work but I think might be too expensive I only need 4gb 8 at max.
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Yeah was thinking that but something is better than rocking horse poo Ben
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Yeah was thinking that but something is better than rocking horse poo Ben Oh yes appreciate that - if i can't find the SD card slot will probably go with something like this The reason for SD card was that its a tried and test method in what we want to use it for. Whereas the above sata dom is untested.
Oaktech Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 You will kill the SD card i think - too many writes. Point taken, but for the sake of a 16gb SD and $16 I'll try it... My laptop is due for a rebuild! (Does a Raspberry Pi not suffer from this? My Pi has been fine for months and months?)
plexer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Didn't Open-e originally supply some kind of DOM? Ben
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Point taken, but for the sake of a 16gb SD and $16 I'll try it... My laptop is due for a rebuild! (Does a Raspberry Pi not suffer from this? My Pi has been fine for months and months?) thats true - i'm not sure. I have ESXI running from SD cards but it doesn't write much to them.
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Didn't Open-e originally supply some kind of DOM? Ben Possibly but no longer. I've only been involved with it for 7 months or so. They only provide the Single software now (DSS Versions 6/7 ) and its upgrade bolt on suchs as ISCSi failover.
ICTLTD Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I'm looking for something like the PCI usb card which have an internal port on them apart from I would like to it to support SD cards Instead anybody seen anything? How about ARASAN CHIP SYSTEMS STANDARD SD HOST VER 2.0 PCI BOARD
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 How about ARASAN CHIP SYSTEMS STANDARD SD HOST VER 2.0 PCI BOARD that looks to be the jobby I'll see if i can find one new 1
ICTLTD Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 that looks to be the jobby I'll see if i can find one new Ill be honest I have never sold one so I don't have a clue who supplies them or distributes them.
glennda Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Ill be honest I have never sold one so I don't have a clue who supplies them or distributes them. Neither have we - Can't see them with C2000 or the likes think we are just going to think of another way to do it!
