Vszerda PCIe x1 3.0 to 4-Port M.2 SATA Adapter (ASMedia 1064)

SKU CH-80EK-SANGH

PCIe 3.0 x1 card adds four M.2 SATA slots supporting 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 drives at 10 Gbps via ASMedia 1064

  • Adds four SATA M.2 drives over a single PCIe x1 3.0 slot
  • ASMedia 1064 controller delivers 10 Gbps aggregate bandwidth
  • Driver-free operation on Windows, Linux, NAS, Ubuntu and ESXi
  • Fits 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 B-key SATA SSDs
  • SATA-only design — NVMe drives are not supported

Vszerda PCIe x1 3.0 M.2 SATA Adapter

This adapter adds four M.2 SATA slots to any system with a free PCIe x1 3.0 slot. It uses the ASMedia 1064 controller to provide a 10 Gbps link for each connected drive. The card fits 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form-factor SSDs and works without extra drivers on Windows, Linux, NAS, Ubuntu or ESXi platforms.

Builders expanding SATA storage on mining rigs

Suits anyone who needs multiple B-key M.2 SATA SSDs on a single PCIe lane. Not for users who want to run M.2 NVMe drives, as the adapter only supports the SATA protocol. Also unsuitable for systems lacking a PCIe x1 3.0 slot or for those requiring boot support without BIOS recognition of the ASMedia 1064 chip.

B-key M.2 SATA protocol support

The single deciding specification is that every port accepts only B-key M.2 SATA SSDs and rejects M.2 NVMe modules. Verify that each drive you plan to install is a SATA-model in 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280 size before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the ASMedia 1064 adapter produce when running four SATA SSDs continuously?

The card has no active cooling, so it runs silently. Heat output depends on the installed SSDs; the controller itself draws little power from the PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.

What must my motherboard provide for this PCIe 3.0 x1 card to function?

A free PCI Express x1 slot (or larger) at version 3.0 or newer, plus BIOS/UEFI support for booting from add-in SATA controllers if you plan to use a drive as the OS volume.

Will my existing M.2 2280 SATA drive work alongside this adapter in the same system?

Yes, the adapter accepts 2280 B-key SATA SSDs and operates independently of any onboard M.2 slots, provided the motherboard has a spare PCIe x1 lane.
