MZHOU PCI E X4 to SATA 3.0 Controller Card, 6 Port III 6Gbps Expansion Cards Boot as System Disk for Windows/Linux

6-Port SATA Interface Expansion Card: Adds 6 independent SATA III ports to your PC, each supporting speeds up to 6Gbps. Ideal for connecting HDDs, SSDs, or optical drives. Supports AHCI mode and software RAID configurations (RAID 0/1/5/10) under Windows systems for flexible data management. Advanced ASM1166 Controller: Powered by the latest ASMedia ASM1166 chip. Unlike older PCIe 2.0 cards, this adapter features a native PCIe 3.0 architecture, offering higher transmission efficiency, lower heat generation, and superior stability for your storage devices. PCIe x4 Bandwidth: Unlike standard cards with limited bandwidth, this sata adapter utilizes a full PCIe 3.0 x4 interface. It provides a massive 8GB/s bi-directional bandwidth, ensuring that all 6 SATA ports can deliver high-speed performance simultaneously. While each port supports up to 6Gbps link speed, the shared architecture intelligently manages data flow to minimize bottlenecks—perfect for multi-drive storage expansion. Broad Compatibility: Fully supports Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10 / 11 and Linux / Ubuntu. Plug and Play for modern OS (drivers may be required for Win 7). Note: Please ensure your motherboard has an available PCIe x4, x8, or x16 slot. Reliable Power Supply Solution: To ensure stable operation for multiple drives, the package includes a 1-to-4 SATA power splitter cable. This allows you to connect your hard drives directly to the PC's power supply unit (PSU), preventing power shortages or drive dropouts during heavy data transfers.
