Product Identification

The GLOTRENDS SA3034A is a PCI Express 3.0 x1 add-in card that adds four SATA III 6 Gbps ports to a desktop or server. It uses the ASM1064 controller and operates in AHCI mode.

Target Builder

This card suits builders who need to connect up to four SATA hard drives or SSDs simultaneously for a storage pool or software RAID. It includes two brackets for standard and low-profile slots, plus four SATA cables and a 1:5 SATA power splitter. Systems without a free PCIe x1 slot or buyers who require hardware RAID cannot use this card.

Deciding Specification

Only the first SATA port supports operating-system booting; the remaining three ports are limited to data storage. If the build requires booting from any drive beyond the first port, this card will not meet that requirement.
