PCI-E add-on Success & Failures

[macross_dyrl]

Good day,

I purchased two of the Rockpro64 Boards and NAS case. 
So far I really like the unit. 
I plan on donating second board to freebsd project.  waiting on them to tell me where to send it.

I am starting to try a few PCI boards boards in the rockpro64. 

I was able to get High point RAId card that comes with san digital to work after upgrade of the kernel.
Please post any PCI devices that work here and anything you need to do to get it recognized.
