Has anyone used a port multiplier in the Microserver?
I'd love to keep the current quantity of storage I've got but add a cheap SSD as the C: somehow. Is this even possible? I'd plan to 'replicate' the onboard SATA port or the ESATA port, not the regular hotplug ports.

I'm reading the newegg comments here and they keep mentioning RAID, is this a requirement of multiplied ports? I can't just have them as multiple disks hanging off a SATA port?
Has anyone done this with the microserver? I'm sure I could fit in an SSD, just.
Poor little PSU would be a bit angry though, USB3 card (requires FDD power) , extra video card, 8gb of ram, 6 3.5" HDD's, a port multiplier (requires FDD power) and finally an SSD
Still,.......... - anyone got experience / comments with port multipliers on the N54L?
