Not sure if this needs to be a new thread

FREENAS-MINI-3.0-XL+ can I add ninth internal drive for backup?

How can I add a 9th 3.5" drive in a FREENAS-MINI-3.0-XL+ that has
8 - Spinning Rust 3.5's in the 8 primary Bays
L2ARC|
Empty 2.5 top tray

I want to be able to Backup the Pool or the SMB share and or snapshots on an 18TB 3.5 drive in the case.

Looks like there is a SATA port available on the motherboard

is there a preferred power header for another drive?

Any tip on a thread that as gone down this avenue if possible is greatly appreciated.
