The SATA drives are connected via two Mini-SAS ports with two included Mini-SAS to 4x-SATA adapter cables. To ensure a secure connection, each SATA port on the included cables features a locking connector, that will prevent the drive from accidental disconnection when working inside your computer case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWide Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe PCIe MUX that's built into this controller card manages the downstream controllers, which improves motherboard compatibility by ensuring the card will work with motherboards that support bifurcation and motherboards that do not. To further improve motherboard compatibility the card does not have a built-in RAID controller, but fully supports the use of software RAID. Plus, with supports for PCIe Gen 2 and SATA III Specifications this card ensures backward compatibility with previous generations (SATA I\/II, PCIe Gen 1) at lower performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe controller card is widely supported across all popular operating system platforms including Windows (7,8,10, 11), macOS (10.10 - 11) and Linux (2.6.32 and above).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHassle-Free Installation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe SATA controller card features plug-and-play installation and can be installed in full-profile and low-profile computer systems with a full-profile bracket preinstalled, and an interchangeable low-profile (half-height) bracket included. The card also supports storage software data management systems such as Storage Spaces (Microsoft) , RAID Assistant (MacOS) and mdraid\/mdadm (Linux), for hassle-free setup, partitioning and software RAID array building.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e8P6G-PCIE-SATA-CARD is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime 24\/5 North American based, multi-lingual support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e- Add eight SATA 6Gbps drives to your desktop computer or server\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e- Manage your drives and built RAID arrays with storage management systems such as Storage Spaces (Microsoft) , RAID Assistant (macOS), mdraid\/mdadm (Linux)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr class=\"CZMLKuuj\" style=\"border-top-color: rgb(223, 223, 223); box-sizing: content-box; margin: 48px 0px; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"_2ue22Jnr\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; font-size: 2rem; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"StarTech 8 Port SATA III PCIe Controller Card - Desktop Overview 2\" class=\"_3QrbAQ8L\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mwave.com.au\/images\/400\/startech_8_port_sata_pcie_card_6gbps_sata_iii_card_with_4_controllers_ac59431_26206.jpg\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; max-width: 800px; margin: 32px auto 0px; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable align=\"center\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"xl6525414\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse;border:0px;color:black;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-feature-settings:inherit;font-kerning:inherit;font-optical-sizing:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-stretch:inherit;font-variant-alternates:inherit;font-variant-east-asian:inherit;font-variant-numeric:inherit;font-variation-settings:inherit;line-height:inherit;margin:0px;padding:1px 1px 0px;table-layout:fixed;vertical-align:middle;white-space:nowrap;width:585pt;\" width=\"780\"\u003e\t\u003ccolgroup style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px;\"\u003e\t\t\u003ccol class=\"xl7025414\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding-top: 1px; padding-right: 1px; padding-left: 1px; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: 700; text-align: right; vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1pt solid rgb(191, 191, 191); border-right: none; border-bottom: 1pt solid rgb(191, 191, 191); border-left: none; white-space: normal; width: 214pt;\" width=\"285\"\u003e\t\t\u003ccol class=\"xl6825414\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; font-size: 10pt; vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1pt solid rgb(191, 191, 191); border-right: none; border-bottom: 1pt solid rgb(191, 191, 191); border-left: none; white-space: normal; padding-left: 9px; width: 371pt;\" width=\"495\"\u003e\t\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\t\u003ctbody style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: top;\"\u003e\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"StarTech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47995541520515,"sku":"AC59431","price":185.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6633\/7923\/files\/startech_8_port_sata_pcie_card_6gbps_sata_iii_card_with_4_controllers_ac59431_59575.jpg?v=1787787519","url":"https:\/\/www.mwave.com.au\/products\/startech-8-port-sata-iii-pcie-controller-card-ac59431","provider":"Mwave","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
