Internal 6G 4-Port SATA PCIe controller
AD4SA6GPX2
Overview
This 4-Port SATA PCIe controller Comes with internal SATA ports to connect up to four SATA devices. The controller supports throughput up to 6Gbps when installed into PCI-Express 2.0 slots with 2 or more lanes. The small form factor of this controller allows it to fit into both standard height and low profile slots in many Desktop, small form factor system, rack mount system and various computing equipment.
Performance measured at our test lab using 4 SATA III hard drives configured in RAID 0 and the controller installed into a PCIe 2.0 16X slot.
Please note performance varies depending on speed of the hard drive, the system hardware and the type of PCIe slot
