Server Board S2600STB compatibility PCIe Bifurcation

[MMoerch]

Hello Communitie,

I want to build a new RAID in my Server based on Board S2600STB.

I planed this configuration:

into Slot 2 PCIe* 3.0 x (x16 electrical) handled by CPU2:

GRAID SupremeRAID SR-1000 up to 8 NVMe SSDs, PCIe 3.0 x16

into both Slots:

Slot 2 PCIe* 3.0 x (x16 electrical) handled by CPU2 (riser capable)

Slot 6 PCIe* 3.0 x (x16 electrical) handled by CPU1 (riser capable)

a Delock PCIe 4.0 x16 Card 4 x internal NVMe M.2 Key M  – Bifurcation

and equip them with 4 SSD NVMe M.2 Kingston KC3000 2TB 

The Delock Cards need the Bifurcation support of the Mainboard/BIOS.

The Bios shows this options.

Did anyone of You have some experience with this expansion?

Many thanks for any feed back!

Kind regards,

Matthias
