Might be a dumb question, but having a hard time googling+reddit searching this issue.
Just bought an Optiplex 5060 MT and plan on continuously adding/upgrading drives as I go. Gonna start with a 3.5 recertified Exos X20 18TB(any other suggestions are VERY welcome)
Unfortunately finding out that while it can hold a 2.5 and a 3.5, I haven't seen mods(at least well cooled ones) that can get a second 3.5" drive in there. So also looking to the future when I start upgrading drive space, currently looking at external enclosures.
I have a USB C I can use, but wouldn't SATA be better? I can fit a PCI-E Sata card and it shouldn't be an issue to run the cables out of the case, but can you just buy a SATA connected external 3.5" bay drive?
Thank you!
