We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I mean... As long as you can get it in there it'll run. Just not at full bandwidth ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There will be bottlenecks? I have 7200 rpm drives, can I clarify, if each drives is 200 mb/s and PCIe 1x use 1gb/s. I will be good? The LSI HBA card is one SAS to 4 Sata, so 4 x 200 mb/s = 800 mb/s. I'm not sure if this is how it works.
Probably? Maybe? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ didn't give a whole lot of information
Pcie gen 3.0 x1 is 1GBps. Is both your slot AND your card gen 3 or higher? Older cards are usually gen 2
Yes that is how that would work assuming the card uses gen 3... Although given the fact that you said theres 1 SAS port, I doubt its gen 3. Single port cards were mainly a thing on SAS 1/2 cards, which predominantly used PCIe gen 2.
Could I use a M.2 to PCIe riser 8x? My M.2 is PCIe 4.0
