      @NineX:

      on my motherboard i have 2 sata connectors where i can put ssd.

      I searched and searched but just couldn't find an answer to this. Dug through the ADI manual, which did not help. Closest thing I could find was this old thread and maybe this one.

        4860 has a single mSATA slot and a single SATA port. I'm not sure how this can be done.

              True, but that's 1U and I was under impression luckman212 was talking about SG-4860 (or SG-2440), which are both desktop. No room for extra SSD's there :)

                Yes, I was… well, it might be a long shot but what about something like this?

                SATA DOM 32GB (SSD-DM032-SMCMVN1)

                USB header to 2-pin power cable (hard to find but I found one guy making them)

                Plug that in here:

                  General idea is good. i am not sure if this pin port on board you selected good.
                  however in adi documentation you should find 5V output on board that you can hook ;)

                    According to ADI documentation port you selected is front panel header - so wrong
                    here is an pinout information picture from reference board from adi.
                    compare with your bord and check if usb pinout is soldered.

                        Cool, I ordered a couple of those power cables from the guy and I'll test this & report back!
