Green circuit board with four SATA ports and metal bracket

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 4-Port PCIe to SATA 3.0 Expansion Card with Bracket

SKU CH-1MV7-W2PTW

Adds four SATA 3.0 ports through a single PCIe slot with a standard bracket for multi-drive storage expansion

  • Expands storage with four SATA 3.0 ports at 6Gbps
  • Fits standard chassis using the included mounting bracket
  • Works in PCIe X1, X4, X8 or X16 slots
  • Connects SATA HDDs, SSDs and optical drives
  • Plug-and-play on Windows and Linux systems

What this card adds

The SMUGDESK adapter turns a single PCI Express slot into four independent SATA 3.0 ports, each running at 6Gbps. It is built for desktop owners and small-server builders who need to connect multiple hard drives, SSDs or optical drives without using a second host bus adapter.

Slot and drive check

Verify that your motherboard has a free PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot and that the chassis can accept a standard mounting bracket. The card supports SATA-based HDDs, SSDs and optical drives, so confirm your drives use the SATA interface before ordering.

Thermals and power

The board draws power directly from the PCI Express slot and runs without an active cooler, so it adds negligible heat and no fan noise inside the case. Normal operation stays within the slot's standard power envelope, keeping the system quiet and temperatures unchanged.

Questions about this item

Does the card include the SATA data cables I need to connect four drives?

The package supplies the PCIe-to-SATA adapter with its mounting bracket; SATA data cables for each drive must be purchased separately.

I only have a PCIe x1 slot free — will this 4-port SATA 3.0 card work in it?

Yes, the board is compatible with PCIe x1, x4, x8 and x16 slots, so a single-lane slot will run all four SATA 3.0 ports.

What real-world transfer rate can I expect from each SATA 3.0 port on this card?

Each port supports the SATA 3.0 6 Gbps link speed; actual throughput depends on the drive and system but will not exceed that interface limit.
