SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 4 Port SATA 3.0 PCIe x1 Gen3 ASM1064 Hard Drive Adapter

SKU CH-YTR8-HM81K

Adds four SATA 3.0 ports via a PCIe x1 slot using the ASM1064 controller for storage expansion

  • Adds four SATA 3.0 ports for more drives
  • ASMedia ASM1064 controller keeps transfers steady
  • Each port runs at 6Gbps for fast storage
  • Fits any PCIe x1 Gen3 slot on desktop or server
  • Driver-free setup means instant recognition

Adds four SATA 3.0 ports via a single PCIe x1 Gen3

This card uses the ASMedia ASM1064 controller to turn one PCIe lane into four independent SATA connections. Each port delivers up to 6 Gbps bandwidth for hard drives or solid-state drives. No driver installation is required on common desktop and server operating systems. The compact bracket fits standard low-profile and full-height cases.

Suits builders adding multiple SATA drives

Users who require more than four ports, a different host interface or external connectors will not find those features here. The x1 link limits aggregate throughput to the bandwidth of a single Gen3 lane. Systems without a free PCIe slot cannot use this adapter.

ASMedia ASM1064 controller with four SATA 3.0 ports

The ASM1064 chip provides native four-port SATA 3.0 operation without port multipliers. Each device connects directly to the controller for consistent performance. This specification determines whether the card matches the required port count and interface speed.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need a free PCIe x1 slot for this SMUGDESK adapter?

Yes, it requires an available PCIe x1 slot on the motherboard to function.

Will the ASM1064 controller run my older SATA 2.0 hard drives at full speed?

Older SATA drives will work but are limited to their own maximum transfer rate, not the port's 6Gbps capability.

How can I confirm each of the four SATA 3.0 ports is operating at 6Gbps after installation?

Check the negotiated link speed in your operating system's device manager or BIOS; it should report 6Gbps for connected drives.
