Quad sata hat on laptop motherboard?

#1

Hello,

So I got unconventional idea.
As I have diy project at home- laptop made into small home server running on ubuntu server 20.04 headless, I was wondering if qual sata hat could run on laptop and not raspberry pi?

I can’t find schematics what does gpio pins do on the hat and if it necessary to run sata hat?
Or does sata hat only support ARM based devices only?

You can read a little bit from the pins here: https://wiki.radxa.com/Dual_Quad_SATA_HAT

The most of the code is written in Python, so maybe it’s not only support ARM based devices, but there could be some other specific code what is still only supported on ARM based devices.
