SMUGDESK 4-Port SATA 3.0 PCIe x1 Gen3 Adapter ASM1064

SKU CH-30XN-BTMHS

Adds four SATA 3.0 ports at 6Gbps each via a single PCIe x1 Gen3 slot using the ASM1064 controller

  • Add four 6 Gbps SATA ports with ASM1064 controller
  • Single PCIe x1 Gen3 slot works in larger PCIe slots
  • Connect HDDs, SSDs or optical drives to each port
  • Plug-and-play support for Windows and Linux systems
  • Mature ASMedia chipset keeps multi-drive arrays stable

Four SATA 3.0 Ports on One PCIe Slot

This SMUGDESK adapter adds four independent SATA 3.0 ports to a desktop PC through a single PCIe x1 Gen3 slot. It uses the ASMedia ASM1064 controller to deliver up to 6Gbps bandwidth per port. The card suits users who want to connect multiple SATA hard drives, SSDs or optical drives without replacing the motherboard.

Suits Multi-Drive SATA Builds

The adapter works well for DIY NAS projects, storage servers or workstations that need more internal SATA connections than the board provides. It supports standard SATA storage devices and is compatible with Windows and Linux systems for plug-and-play installation. Builders who require external ports or a different host interface should look at other solutions.

ASMedia ASM1064 Controller Chip

The onboard ASM1064 chip manages four native SATA 3.0 channels over the PCIe x1 Gen3 link, providing stable multidrive performance. This controller choice determines compatibility with SATA HDDs, SSDs and optical drives across supported operating systems. Verify that your motherboard has a free PCIe x1 or larger slot before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the ASM1064 controller is recognised after installing the card?

Open Device Manager in Windows or run lspci on Linux; the ASM1064 SATA controller should appear without error codes.

Which cables or drives are included with the adapter?

The package contains only the PCIe x1 expansion card; SATA data cables, power cables and drives must be purchased separately.

Should I choose a different version if I need more than four SATA 3.0 ports?

This model provides exactly four SATA 3.0 ports; for additional ports a second card or a different controller would be required.
