Yoetaun

Yoetaun IO-M2F1166-6I 6-Port M.2 Sata NVME Expansion Card

SKU CH-D4NV-2TXJ1 MPN IO-M2F1166-6I

Adds six Sata ports through a 2-Lane M.2 PCIe 3.0 slot using an Asmedia 1166 chip at 6Gbps

  • ColorBlack
  • Add six SATA drives through one M.2 slot
  • PCIe 3.0 x2 link delivers up to 1 GB per lane
  • Asmedia 1166 chip handles port multiplier duties
  • SATA 3.2 compliant for 6 Gbps per drive
  • Compact 80 mm by 22 mm card fits tight spaces

Target Users

This Yoetaun IO-M2F1166-6I expansion card adds six SATA ports through a 2-Lane M.2 PCI-Express 3.0 M-Key interface. It suits builders who need extra SATA connectivity for storage drives on platforms with an available M.2 slot. The Asmedia 1166 chip handles the protocol translation between the PCIe link and the SATA 3.0 endpoints. Buyers who require direct NVMe drive attachment without SATA conversion should look elsewhere.

Thermals Power Noise

The compact 80 by 22 mm composite-and-metal board draws power from the M.2 slot and operates without active cooling. Passive heat dissipation is sufficient for typical SATA SSD or hard-drive workloads. PCI-Express 3.1 link-layer power-saving modes reduce energy use when drives are idle. No fan noise is generated.

Bundled Value

The package includes one SATA expansion card only. Cables, mounting brackets or driver media are not supplied. The card complies with SATA 3.2 and PCIe 3.1 specifications, ensuring broad OS support without extra software installation. Port Multiplier command-based and FIS-based modes are supported for expanded drive counts per port.

Questions about this item

How do I install the card in an M.2 M-Key slot and what step is often missed?

Insert the card into a 2-lane PCIe 3.0 M-Key slot at 3.15 inches length, then connect SATA cables to the six ports; the step often missed is enabling the M.2 slot in BIOS for PCIe rather than SATA mode.

What maintenance or replacement will the Asmedia 1166 controller need over time?

The controller itself has no moving parts; only the attached SATA drives may need replacement, and the card's composite material and metal construction requires no scheduled maintenance.

What throughput limit appears first when all six SATA 3.0 ports run sustained transfers?

The 2-lane PCIe 3.0 link caps total bandwidth at roughly 1 GB/s per lane, so sustained multi-drive traffic will hit the host interface ceiling before individual 6 Gbps SATA ports saturate.
