As mentioned in an earlier question. I am still puzzled how to connect a drivebay of 5 sata drives.
Apart from the power (molex) connectors , there are depending on the model 4 or 5 sata connectors.

If this is indeed for each drive one, how the hell can something like this be connected to the mainboard
inside. Normal motherboards mostly have only up to 4 sata connectors.

5 connectors thus do not fit. So i am also wondering how "rudepeople" will be able to connect 4 units (aka 20 drives). This means 20 sata cables/connectors at the same time.

I was looking for sata hub (connect x sata's to 1 connector) but these are pretty hard to find. And also not cheap.

Can anybody please advice how this should work? Am i overlooking something?

Thanx for the great initial review
