The StarTech.com 8P6G-PCIE-SATA-CARD is a PCIe x4 Gen 2 expansion card that adds eight SATA III 6Gbps drive connections, making it suitable for desktop or server users who need to connect multiple HDDs or SSDs through one PCIe slot.
Recommended For
- Desktop or home-media-server builders who have run out of motherboard SATA ports and need to attach several internal SATA hard drives for shared storage or a media library.
- Windows home-server users who want to expand a SATA drive pool and manage it with software such as Windows Storage Spaces rather than relying on hardware RAID.
- Linux or macOS desktop/server users who need more SATA connections for a software-managed array and have checked compatibility with their specific operating system and motherboard.
- Small-form-factor desktop builders with an available PCIe slot who need multiple internal SATA ports; the card includes a low-profile bracket and breakout cables for drive connections.
