The PEXSAT34RH 4-Port PCI Express 2.0 SATA Controller Card with HyperDuo adds 4 AHCI SATA III ports to a computer through a PCIe slot (x2), delivering multiple internal 6Gbps connections for high-performance hard drives and Solid State Drives (SSDs).

Featuring HyperDuo technology, the SATA card offers SSD auto-tiering which lets you balance the performance advantages of SSD storage with the cost-effectiveness and large capacity of standard hard drives. By combining SSD and HDD drives into a single volume (up to 3 SSD + 1 HDD), HyperDuo discreetly works in the background to identify and move frequently accessed files to the faster SSD drive(s) for improved data throughput - up to 80% of SSD performance! (Note: The HyperDuo automatic storage tiering feature is compatible with computers that use a BIOS.)

The PCIe SATA controller card supports Port Multiplier (PM), enabling multiple SATA drives to be connected to one port over a single cable, for a total of 7 drives (Up to 4 drives through PM on one port, and a single drive to the remaining 3 ports). Plus, the SATA controller card offers an effective hardware RAID solution, with native RAID (0, 1, 1+0) support.

This PCIe SATA 6gbps card is backed by a 2-year StarTech.com warranty and free lifetime technical support.

The StarTech.com Advantage
- Leverage SSD performance and standard HDD capacity with HyperDuo technology
- Maximize system capability with SATA III connection speeds
- Fit any standard or low profile chassis with included brackets

14 days from date of receipt, or expected date of receipt on non-tracked items.

How do I go about returning my order?
Please contact us via our contact page with your order number. We will provide you with an RMA number and return instructions, including your return deadline and whether a freepost label applies to your order.
