Four-port SATA III mini PCI-e card

The Syba SI-MPE40125 adds four SATA III connections to a small-form-factor system through a full-size mini PCI-e slot. It uses the Marvell 9215 chipset and complies with the PCI-E Mini Card specification revision 1.2. The card targets builders who need extra drive ports in compact or embedded platforms.

Sustained throughput at 6.0 Gbps

The controller supports communication speeds of 6.0 Gbps, 3.0 Gbps and 1.5 Gbps while remaining compliant with Serial ATA Specification 3.1. Under continuous load the link negotiates the highest speed each attached drive can sustain without thermal throttling from the card itself.

Straightforward mini PCI-e installation

The package includes the host controller card, a driver CD, a user manual and one SATA cable. Installation requires a compatible full-size mini PCI-e slot and operating-system drivers for the Marvell 9215; systems lacking that slot or driver support cannot use the card.

Questions about this item

Does the Marvel 9215 chipset run hot or draw extra power when all four SATA III ports are active all day?

The card uses a low-profile Mini PCI-e form factor with no onboard fan, and the Marvel 9215 controller is designed for efficient operation within the slot's standard power envelope.

What slot and cable types must my system already have for this SI-MPE40125 to work?

You need a full-size Mini PCI Express slot compatible with revision 1.2 and standard SATA data cables for each drive you connect.

Will my older 3.0 Gbps and 1.5 Gbps SATA drives work at their native speeds alongside newer 6.0 Gbps drives on this card?

Yes, the controller is compliant with Serial ATA Specification 3.1 and automatically negotiates 6.0 Gbps, 3.0 Gbps or 1.5 Gbps per port.
