No mSATA or IDE, see 
:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138412. Yes, 1 
PCIE 16X slot, & room for a 4X or 6X 2.5" HDD container in the 5.25" 
bay, but I didn't want to spend any more $$$$. I also thought there 
might be issues combining drives from different controllers, 2X SATA 
slots on the mbd, 4X through a separate controller, no ?
