I've used up all 6 SATA ports on my motherboard along with all 6 power plugs from that PSU. The setup is six 4TB drives in RAIDZ2.
I've picked up two 12TB drives that I want to add as a separate mirror pool.
I have room in the case to add them for now.

Would this one from eBay work also?

I'm located in Canada and open to suggestions if there are better/more cost effective options. I also prefer if I don't have to flash the cards to IT mode myself if possible
1 x 4/8pin CPU
2 x 6+2pin PCI-E
5 x Peripheral
6 x SATA
1 x Floppy
What adapters should I be looking for? Peripheral/molex to SATA? Is it safe and stable?
If there's anything I missed, please let me know. Thanks!

- I am going to need some more SATA ports of course. Reading through some of the documents and the forums, I believe any of these two should work:

- I need more SATA power for the new drives. These are the PSU connectors:
1 x 4/8pin CPU
2 x 6+2pin PCI-E
5 x Peripheral
6 x SATA
1 x Floppy
What adapters should I be looking for? Peripheral/molex to SATA? Is it safe and stable?
- For future expansion beyond these two additional drives, are there brackets+mounts that I can add to this case to add more drives? Or should I consider looking for a new case?
If there's anything I missed, please let me know. Thanks!
