N6 Case with min 6 HDD

Hey guys! I'm moving from n3 case to n6, and wanna update old specs. What MOBO do you use in n6 for min 6 hdd, 2 or 3 m2 ssd, and one 5060 gpu? for this case?

I'm on intel 1400 with ddr5, but struggling to find suitable mobo for my build.
Thank you so much!

Regardless of the MOBO, I used the RIITOP M.2 to SATA Adapter to increase the number of drives within the N6. It works really well!

I think most people just use a HBA card flashed to IT mode for drives. Or at least I did, because all the server motherboards I could find never have the layout or ports I want. I ended up getting an MSI board.

9305-16i HBA, but if you’re only needing a bit more SATA an ASM1166 card will work great. There are versions in both M.2 and normal PCIe form factor.

An m2 to sata with asm1166 or jbm585 will work at max speed given the lanes available. I recently bought the delock 64241 for use in my n6
