Vszerda 4-Port PCIe SATA Expansion Card with 4 Cables & Low Profile Bracket

SKU CH-TAEW-E32R9

Adds four SATA III 6Gbps ports via a PCIe x4 slot using an ASMedia ASM1164 controller, includes four cables and a low-profile bracket

  • Color4 Port, PCIe-X4, with 4 SATA cable
  • Accelerated 6Gbps bandwidth for SSDs and HDDs using SATA III controller
  • ASMedia ASM1164 chip provides stable four-port connectivity with Port Multiplier support
  • Backward compatible with SATA 1.0 and 2.0 across PCIe 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 slots
  • Four independent ports connect multiple drives simultaneously for NAS or server upgrades
  • Broad OS support including Windows Server 2019 and Ubuntu 21 with included brackets

Four-port SATA III expansion

The Vszerda card adds four independent SATA 6Gbps ports through a single PCIe x4 slot using an ASMedia ASM1164 controller. It targets builders who need extra drive connections for NAS, server or workstation storage arrays. RAID functionality is not supported.

Fits standard and low-profile builds

A full-height bracket and a low-profile bracket are both included so the card works in full-size towers and compact chassis alike. Four SATA cables ship with the card, letting you attach up to four drives without buying extra cables. The board requires a free PCIe x4, x8 or x16 slot and draws power from the slot itself.

Sustained transfer at SATA III speeds

Under continuous load the controller maintains SATA 3.0 6Gbps bandwidth across all four ports, backward compatible with SATA 1.0 and 2.0 drives. Port Multiplier command-based switching is supported, while hot-swap capability is not available. Driver support covers Windows 7 through 11, Windows Server 2008 R2 through 2019, major Linux distributions, FreeBSD and VMware ESXi 5 through 7.

Questions about this item

Will the ASMedia ASM1164 chip become a bottleneck when all four SATA III 6Gbps ports run at full speed?

The card uses a PCIe x4 link, so the host bus provides more bandwidth than the four 6Gbps SATA ports combined.

Does the controller run hot or draw extra power when driving four drives continuously?

The board has no active cooling and draws power only from the PCIe slot; typical operation stays within slot limits.

Which motherboard slot is required for the card to function?

A PCIe x4, x8 or x16 slot compatible with PCIe 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 is needed.
