From the project

Concept for a Tiny5 riser with 2 full-size PCIe slots and a 5V buck converter, primarily meant for use with a fast NIC + HBA to build a NAS out of a Tiny system without needing modification to get 5V or any weird adapter for the second PCIe card.

Planned features: - PCIe x8 slot from CPU - PCIe x4 slot from PCH - 5V buck for hard drives/ssds - 12V + 5V output for SATA - optional SMBus disconnect for problematic raid cards
