Hi there
I need some advice on both of these cards. I have the QNAP TS-664 and it would appear that both of these are compatible.
What I am questioning is the fact the looking at the images of both, the QM2-2P-384A has a larger pin connection block than the QM2-2P-344A. I am unsure which one to purchase. Would really welcome your advice here.
Yes, one is x4 and other x8 speed. But both should work. Even if not all of the pins slot into PCIe slot. Since NAS itself has x4 slot.
Excellent. Thank you
