8-Port SATA 3.0 expansion kit

The Vszerda kit adds eight SATA 6 Gbps ports through a single PCI Express 1x 3.0 slot using an ASM1064 plus JMB575 controller. It targets desktop builders who need more internal drive connections than the motherboard provides.

Installation notes

The card fits PCIe x1, x4, x8 or x16 slots and includes a low-profile bracket for slim cases. Eight SATA cables and a 15-pin power splitter are supplied. Windows 8, 10 and Ubuntu recognise the card without extra drivers; the motherboard BIOS must be set to AHCI mode and, on some boards, Gen 2 speed enabled manually for full 6 Gbps operation.

Pre-order checks

Verify a free PCI Express 1x or wider slot exists and that the board firmware can switch SATA mode to AHCI. Confirm the power supply has enough SATA power connectors for the splitter and the additional drives. The card does not fit legacy PCI slots.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the card is running at 6.0 Gbit/s after installing it in a PCI-E 1X 3.0 slot?

Set the motherboard BIOS SATA mode to AHCI, use the included SATA 3.0 cables, and verify the link speed in the OS storage utility; PCI-E 2.0 slots can reach 380-450 MB/s while PCI-E 1.0 tops out at 200-300 MB/s.

What cables and accessories ship with the Vszerda 8-port kit?

The box contains eight SATA 3.0 data cables, one 15-pin SATA power splitter cable, and a low-profile bracket for small-form-factor cases.

Should I choose this 8-port version or a smaller card for my build?

Pick the 8-port card when you need to connect up to eight SATA 6.0 Gbit/s drives simultaneously; it fits any PCI-E 1x, 4x, 8x or 16x slot and includes all cables and the low-profile bracket in one kit.
