I am starting to get wise to all the myriad SATA-capable PCIe cards out there. Yes it works, yes you can configure a RAID array (I was successful with RAID 1), and so far it’s handling what I throw at it. However, it is mired in 1.5GB speeds. Don’t let the marketing fool you! It can work with faster drives, but is just 1.5GB.

I had a review that really would have been a pleasure for you to read, but it disappeared while I was taking a second picture to include. Then it happened again, although to a lesser extent. This review is going to be shorter. And probably less pleasurable to read.
Sorry!
🙂
The card came packaged properly and in working order.
So far I’ve used it as a SATA controller only (no RAID), but soon I’ll be setting up 2x 2TB WD Red drives in RAID 1, for redundancy. If I have issues when I do, I’ll update here. No update?
No problem!!
Strong buy. If I needed another, I’d buy this again. The only reason to not get this card would be if you were trying to put two SSDs in RAID 0. Then I’d say get something else. This card is x1 PCIe 2.0 (500MB/s). Good enough to RAID 0 the fastest platter hard drives, even now. And probably for the next 2-3 years. But not SSDs. You’d never see a doubling of sequential transfers.
Moving on:
This next part is a recommendation specifically for people who have computers that are full. Full of ports, drives, cards. Lots of cards. And things that look like cards (from some angles at least) that go where cards go, but aren’t cards (you know what I’m talking about).
The recommendation? To make the impossible, possible. To make something, out of nothing!
Some of you will be able to, but some of you, won’t – not everybody has all they need.
lol.
Anyway. Down to business:
The components on the card are all short and its rear bracket is bare – nothing but a sliver of steel! So, instead of letting go of those 4x USB ports you have connected to the motherboard headers, merge. Merge the sliver with the ports! Modify the bracket to hold your ports! It’s what I did to my card. Before you interrupt me here, yes, this could affect your ability to return the card if it breaks (obviously for unrelated reasons, since the bracket is just aesthetic). Instead you could modify an old card’s bracket to do the same thing, placing the stock bracket in storage for that possibility. I attached two pictures of my card.

Working fine.
