PCIe SATA III Expansion Card ASM1061
This board is a single-chip, PCI Express to two SATA Gen III 6Gb/s channels host controller that brings server-class features to the desktop. This board enables the use of the industry’s newest and fastest hard drives at 6Gb/s while providing backward compatibility to legacy SATA 1.5Gb/s or 3Gb/s drives. It uses the same cable and connectors as previous SATA generations to ease integration. Besides, PCI Express 2.0 double the bandwidth of the existing PCI Express bus for faster data throughput. It will enhance system performance for every type of computer user. Each PCI-Express 2.0 lane provides up to 500MB/s of throughput. It also backward compatible with previous generation of PCI Express 1.0 technology.
