I got a Turris Omnia Router, which I want to use as a NAS.

I also really like SATA SSDs, they are abundant (I have too many), never overheat (take that, NVME crap) etc.

The router is pretty tight, a SATA SSD fits in, but I need a cable to have the adapter 90° and a bit upwards.

Now I wonder, what adapter do I need? On AliExpress I find one with 1 or 2 SATA connections, 1 is probably best for sanity and reliability.

This one looks more sketchy, as it has 2 SATA sockets.

    Thanks a lot! The Omnia has a ton of pins inside, I will check if some can provide power.

    It has a small amount of RAM, so running a web server, NAS or torrent server would be possible. That would be great with like a 4TB SATA SSD.

      Oh yeah, that’d be a great file server. Even low power CPU’s can typically serve data about as fast as a SATA-III drive can provide it.
