e-sata hook up

[davknep]

I'm looking for a way to hook up a E-SATA external hard drive to ASUS IX EXTREME! All I've seen are USB connections on the back of the board. Any suggestions will be Greatly Appreciated!

Looks like you would have to add a SATA card with an e-sata port.

You could configure Hot Plug as explained on page 3-18: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/MAXIMUS_IX_EXTREME/E12744_MAXIMUS_IX_EXTREME_UM_V2_WEB_20170707.pdf?_ga=2.186636521.1176006107.1522769979-465676578.1495678648 Then use https://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-107638-Internal-eSATA-Bracket/dp/B005E2Y3DE/ref=pd_bxgy_147_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B005E2Y3DE&pd_rd_r=H22E9S4ZEGZ79ZDFA87B&pd_rd_w=BOBIY&pd_rd_wg=tJJ0O&psc=1&refRID=H22E9S4ZEGZ79ZDFA87B to provide eSATA in the back of your case.
