I use two of these in the chassis USB2 ports. Small form factor so unobtrusive. I keep hoping that eventually they will get the bugs ironed out of USB3. I have one SSD unused in the case and cabling for a second but I reboot so infrequently that the possible speed increase in boot is IMHO not worth it.Parts ordered :)
Just need to read up on the various threads for updating the BIOS and LSI2308.
What do people do for their USB boot drives? The N54L has one internal USB port, so the stick is nicely hidden away inside. Was going to use 2 sticks mirrored, but ideally keep them inside the case.
Looked at the SODs but with this motherboard they obstruct adjacent ports and the same boot speed comment pertains too.
I like having my jails on the ZFS volume too.
