It's a no-name mini PC with four HDD bays. It doesn't seem to exist anymore.

It's a weird Chinese board with a silly gen1x1 pcie link to a 4 port sata controller on a daughter board. I bet it was designed for the 2 port version of the controller and two bays. And some lhow they sold a 4 bays version. So I only have half the bandwidth required to drive the 4xHDDs. Sucks for linux raid.

Interestingly this tiny mobo also has two full speed sata ports on it, that are completely inaccessible, I am not even sure a low profile and thin sata cable can even fit in there. Maybe one day I will try to solder in place from the mobo to the daughter board.
