The PEXSAT32 2-Port PCI Express SATA 6 Gbps (SATA 3.0) Controller Card offers
simple connectivity between a host computer and SATA 3.0 devices - a
cost-effective solution for connecting high-speed storage, such as High RPM Hard
Drives and Solid State Drives (SSD), which in turn allows for easier data
backups and archiving.
With full support for SATA 3.0 hard drives and data transfer speeds of up to
6 Gbps, the adapter card features a native PCI Express single chipset that
provides enhanced compatibility, reliability and performance for external SATA
600 MB/s storage needs.
The controller card is backward compatible with SATA 2.0 devices, providing
the versatility to use older storage, and features support for RAID 0 and 1
modes as well as port multiplier capability with command-based and FIS-based
switching for connecting multiple external hard drives to a host PC through a
single SATA connection.
A dual profile solution, the SATA 3.0 controller card includes a low
profile/half-height bracket for installation in slimline or small form factor
computer cases.
The StarTech.com Advantage
- Twice the speed of SATA II (3Gbps)
- Ships with a full profile bracket install, low profile included
