## Description

The SI-PEX40064 4 port SATA III PCI-E 2.0 X1 controller card marvel 88SE9235 chipset adds four SATA III ports to a computer through a PCI-E 2.0 X1 slot, delivering multiple internal 6Gbps connections for SATA III hard drives and SSDs. With full support for SATA 3.0 hard drives and data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps, the controller card features a native PCI Express single chipset that provides enhanced compatibility, reliability and performance for SATA 600 MB/s storage needs.

Review: 10 Crest SY-PEX40039 2 port SATA III is a very good card. I got it today afternoon and installed it on my PCIe 2 slot (as suggested by the product manufacturer) and connected my boot ssd and set it as drive 1 (boot drive) through bios. I was in doubt, but it booted instantly. My motherboard supported only SATA II interface, which was bottleneck for my ssd and I could solve the problem with this card only at an expense of Rs. 1900/-. My statisticsare : Before installation (SATA II) : Sequential Read and write speeds : 257.6 and 204 Mbps; Random Read and write speeds : 160.9 and 63.9 Mbps After installation (SATA III) : Sequential Read and write speeds : 365.7 and 231.4 Mbps; Random Read and write speeds : 202.9 and 182.9 Mbps Not a jump indeed, but a formidable boost beyond doubt. I highly recommend this card for the SATA II motherboards for an easy and inexpensive upgradation (need not to change the motherboard)
Review: No hace maravillas, pero incrementa la velocidad de transmisión de datos de discos sata III a placas con sata II. Para que funcione medianamente bien es necesario que el puerto donde se conecte sea, al menos, PCI Express revisión 2. He hecho test y a más velocidad del puerto PCI Express, algo más rápido es la transmisión de datos (tampoco muchísimo mas). Tiene que quedar claro que no va a llegar a la misma velocidad que una placa sata III, pero por muy poco dinero, puedes alargar la vida de ese ordenador al que tanto cariño le tienes. Tiene dos conectores internos sata II y se puede conectar en un Puerto PCI Express x1. Lo he probado en placas Gigabyte y HP y no me han dado problemas, aunque en equipos workstation de HP, no se por qué, no funcionaba en los PCI Express x4 y lo tuve que pinchar en el x1. En otros equipos lo he puesto en x16 que tenía libre. Ideal para conectar discos SSD. Me ha dado problemas con Windows 10 (va lentísimo, mucho más lento que usando los puertos sata II de la propia placa. En Window 7 funciona perfectamente.). La mayoría de las placas lo autodetecta sin problemas y no necesitas del CD de instalación que se incluye en la caja. Desventajas: No se puede hacer Raid sobre los discos montados en este adaptador.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: sorry for the newb question, but how do you connect this to the computer? do I need anything else to connect it?
Thanks!**
A: No worries just ensure that you motherboard has the correct port PCI-e x1 (desktops only, diagram here: http://imgsrv.worldstart.com/images/ct-images/2013/04/mb.jpg), then you simply slot the card into the port, it comes with a couple of SATA data connection cables so you only need to make sure your PSU has sata power connectors available depending on the number of drives you wish to connect (they look like this: http://sharpsblogorama.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/sata-hard-drive-power-cable-connector.jpg) .Hope this answers your question, let me know if you have any further queries or are stuck.

**Q: Is there a HD size limit with this?**
A: I don't believe there's any limit.  I have drives 2-14 TB connected to these cards across multiple PCs and they all worked flawlessly.

**Q: so if I put this into a x16 PCIE 1.0 port and hooked an SSD to it, what would be my max bandwidth to the SSD?**
A: Hello,well, the maximum bandwith provided by the PCI-E x16 gen 1.0 standard port; it is greater than the PCI-E x1 gen 1.0, and not having now many specifications on these standards on Wikipedia.org I have found about that for x1 slot the bandwith is 2.5 GB/s (250 MB/s) and for x16 slot it is 8 GB/s (? MB/s). I hope this is enough. Greetings,Massimo.

**Q: Hi, Does this card support Raid and strip volume?**
A: Seems like a simple question, with a bunch of conflicting answers. The problem is Amazon groups several IO Crest SATA controller cards into one listing and the questions and answers are common across several models. First, it should be clarified that there is hardware RAID and there is software RAID, and if software RAID is what you are after your OS will provide that regardless of your disk controller -- but software RAID doesn't match the performance of hardware RAID. None of the IO Crest cards that are based on the ASMedia chipsets support hardware RAID. The Marvell 88SE9215 does not support hardware RAID. Marvell 88SE9230 support hardware RAID 0 and 1. Marvell 88SE9705 supports hardware RAID 0 and 1 and also HyperDuo. What is HyperDuo? It is like RAID 0 but you mix (hybrid) SATA HDDs and SSDs in the array, and the controller card manages the array to swap the most recently used items onto the SSD storage. This allows you to get the best of both worlds -- the read speed of SSD but the mega storage you get with regular hard drives. Since very little of what is on your array is used on a frequent basis, it can really result in performance gains.  But please don't spend $100 on a card that can do HyperDuo without researching it further because there are some potential downsides.  For the majority of home users , you want a card that can do RAID 0 and 1.

*by C***N on 14 March 2017*

Je souhaitais une carte contrôleur pour avoir 4 ports SATA III supplémentaires afin de brancher un HDD de 5To, un HDD de 10To, le dock 2.5" externe de mon boitier ainsi que le port eSATA en façade. J'ai reçu la carte hier (si il y a un soucis j'éditerai ce commentaire). Je l'ai branché sur un PCI-E x1 et elle a fonctionné directement sur mon PC sous Windows 10 sans rien faire de particulier. Le pilote s'est installé de lui même et les disques durs ont été détecté directement. J'ai tenté un test sous CrystalDiskMark et les disques n'ont pas perdu en débit. Mon transfert de 1,3To s'est passé sans soucis autour de 130-200Mo/s comme d'habitude. Je n'ai constaté aucune déconnection jusqu'à présent contrairement à ce que j'ai pu lire sur d'autres commentaires. La carte est livrée avec 2 câbles SATA rouges classiques de 40cm et un adaptateur pour les petits boitiers. Livraison rapide en 3 jours. Le seul point négatif est que cette carte est en PCI-E x1 2.0 donc debits limités à 500Mo/s. Sachant qu'un disque dur, dans des conditions idéales, peut atteindre 200Mo/s en lecture/écriture, cette carte pourra éventuellement brider 3 ou 4 HDD transférant des données en même temps. Mais bon, pour le prix de cette carte, c'est vraiment chipoter. :D Important pour les étourdis : Cette carte ne supporte pas le RAID. A noter qu'elle est garantie 3 ans. Bref aucun regret, je recommande.
