5-port SATA 6Gbps multiplier

The Vszerda SA-054-XY uses a JMB575 controller to turn one SATA host port into five independent SATA 3.0 connections. It targets builders who need more drive bays than their motherboard or add-in card provides and whose host controller supports port multiplier or selector operation.

Port multiplier requirement

The adapter only works when the host SATA port operates in port multiplier or selector mode; without that capability the connected drives will not be recognised. Compatible host chipsets include JMS582, JMB585, ASM1061, ASM1064 and ASM1166, and the device complies with Serial ATA Port Multiplier Spec 1.2 and Port Selector Spec 1.0.

Replacing single-port SATA connections

This multiplier replaces a direct one-to-one SATA cable when the system has a spare port multiplier-capable host connector but insufficient physical ports for five drives. The upgrade is worthwhile when the host controller and firmware both support multiplier operation and the workload can share the single 6Gbps upstream link.

Questions about this item

Which version of this multiplier should I choose for a five-drive setup?

The SA-054-XY model provides five SATA 3.0 ports from a single host connection using the JMB575 chip, so one unit covers a five-drive array.

What does the 6 Gbps rating mean when the board is installed in my system?

Each of the five ports can run at SATA 3.0 6 Gbps, but the total bandwidth is shared across the single host link, so simultaneous transfers split that ceiling.

Which host controllers work with the port multiplier function?

Compatible host chipsets include JMS582, JMB585, ASM1061, ASM1064 and ASM1166, and the host port must be set to multiplier or selector mode.
