M.2 flash for fast VM or app storage
M.2 SSD for active workloads and cache-heavy setups

Straightforward HBA for raw-drive storage stacks
One PCIe slot, direct-drive connectivity, common TrueNAS choice

Hardware RAID option for platforms that need it
One PCIe slot, more power draw, RAID-focused workflow
Use onboard SATA and M.2 only
Skip a storage controller if onboard connectivity is enough

Common upgrade for storage and virtualization hosts
One PCIe slot, dual SFP+ ports

More copper ports for routing and segmentation
One PCIe slot, 4x 2.5GbE RJ45 ports
No add-in network card
Skip a NIC if the motherboard networking is enough

Low-power GPU for transcode and light compute
Shorter workstation GPU with moderate power draw

Larger GPU if the chassis has the room
Longer dual-slot GPU with higher power needs
Use the CPU or onboard graphics only
Skip the GPU if the build does not need one

Needed for low-profile or rotated expansion layouts
Required if the chosen chassis cannot take the card directly
Use direct motherboard expansion
Skip the riser if the chassis and board do not need it

Sliding rails for standard rack chassis
Useful for serviceability on 2U and 4U rack systems
Skip rails for tower or shelf-mounted systems
No rail kit selected
