RIITOP PCES3-2I SATA III Expansion Card

The RIITOP PCES3-2I adds two internal SATA III ports through a single PCIe x1 slot. It uses the ASMedia ASM1061 chipset to deliver 6 Gbps speeds while remaining backward compatible with 1.5 Gbps and 3 Gbps devices. The card weighs 35 g and fits PCIe x1, x4, x8 or x16 slots. No driver is required for Windows XP through 10, Mac, Linux or NAS operating systems.

Suits builders adding two SATA drives to a spare

Ideal for upgrading older systems or adding storage to a compact build where only a x1 slot is free. The board supports booting from an attached drive and works with motherboard RAID if the platform provides it. Not for buyers who need more than two internal ports, external connectors or hardware RAID on the card itself.

Two SATA III ports via PCIe x1

The single specification that decides fit is the pair of internal SATA III connectors fed by a PCIe x1 interface. If the chassis has a spare x1 or wider slot and the project needs exactly two 6 Gbps SATA links, this card matches that requirement.
