SKU CH-HV53-BFKFB

Adds six SATA 3.0 ports to a desktop for bootable SSDs and HDDs with driver-free PCIe X4 installation

  • Expands desktop storage with 6 SATA 3.0 ports
  • Fits PCIe X4, X8 or X16 slots directly
  • Boots operating systems from SATA SSD or HDD
  • Works instantly without installing extra drivers
  • Delivers reliable performance for everyday desktop use

Six-Port SATA Expansion

This PCIe X4 card adds six SATA 3.0 ports to a desktop computer, each running at 6 Gbps. It connects solid-state drives and mechanical hard disks and supports booting from those drives. No additional drivers are required for installation.

Suits desktop storage upgrades

Builders who need more internal SATA connections for SSDs or HDDs will find the six ports useful. The card fits standard PCIe X4, X8 or X16 slots and works immediately after insertion. Buyers who require interfaces other than SATA or need external drive support should look elsewhere.

PCIe X4 interface requirement

The card uses a PCIe X4 edge connector and is compatible with X4, X8 or X16 motherboard slots. Verify that your board has an available slot of one of those widths before purchase.
