SIIG, Inc

SIIG, Inc SC-SAEB12-S1 SATA PCIe x1 2-Port Host Card

SKU CH-A5AT-Q57V9

Adds two SATA 300 ports via PCIe x1 with 3.0 Gbit/s transfer and NCQ support

  • Add two SATA drives via a single PCIe x1 slot
  • Up to 3.0 Gb/s transfer speed for faster storage
  • Native Command Queuing boosts drive efficiency
  • Supports 48-bit LBA for drives up to 4TB
  • RoHS compliant for environmentally safer components

Two SATA ports on PCIe x1

This SIIG host controller adds two 7-pin Serial ATA connections to a desktop computer through a single PCI Express x1 slot. It supports up to two SATA hard drives and is compliant with RoHS environmental standards. The card uses a plug-in form factor and ships as a single retail unit.

Sustained transfer up to 2.34 Gbit/s

The controller delivers data transfer rates up to 2.34 Gbit/s under continuous load. Features such as Native Command Queuing, non-zero offsets NCQ and out-of-order data delivery NCQ maintain consistent throughput during extended operations. Independent command fetch and scatter/gather execution further stabilise performance over long periods.

48-bit LBA for 4 TB drives

The single specification that determines compatibility is 48-bit LBA support, which enables the card to address drives up to 4 TB in capacity. Without this addressing capability, larger SATA drives would not be fully recognised by the system.

Questions about this item

Does the PCIe x1 SATA card run hot or draw extra power when both 7-pin ports are used all day?

The card uses a single PCIe x1 lane and supports two Serial ATA ports at up to 2.34 Gbit/s, with no active cooling required.

What cables or drives must I already have to connect storage to the two 7-pin Serial ATA ports?

You need up to two Serial ATA drives and standard 7-pin SATA data cables; the card provides the host interface only.

Will the 3.0 Gb/s SATA II controller work with the older SATA drives I want to keep?

The host controller delivers up to 3.0 Gb/s and supports 48-bit LBA for drives up to 4 TB, so existing Serial ATA drives will operate at their rated speed.
