1 out of 5 eggsNot Compatible

Pros: None

Cons: Not working

Other Thoughts: Bought this to add an external eSATA and internal SATA to my new Lenovo win 8 Box with Intel Z75 chipset- it was not seen by BIOS or WIN 8 in either of the 2 PCIE slots. Moved it to my old Win 7 Quad core desktop. Win 7 found it and installed drivers, says it is working correctly, but will not connect to any SATA device I try. Gave up-, not worth sending back.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat for sata addon

Pros: This is exactly what I needed, just 1 e-sata and 1 internal sata, I am running a Western Digital Black e-sata 1tb drive, and a internal sata bluray burner from the card, all in Windows XP Pro....Installed the drivers from the disc, on restart both drives are recognzied. I get over 100/meg sec on the hard drive, and bluray burner all burn fine without issue. Really a cheap great investment.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: For me does NOT lock up on Windows XP Pro, like some others have said, I have had zero issues with it for months now. For the money it can't be beat.

5 out of 5 eggsWorks Well With Windows 7

Pros: Easy to install, works as boot device, replaced my broken onboard SATA controller

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: Beware that it has only 1 internal SATA port, but if that's good enough for you, this is a very nice little card for a good price. The manual says you need Windows installed but you can even install Windows 7 (I did 64 bit) with this card as the only controller. You have to load the driver during install, the included disc contains the latest Windows 7 drivers. There is a pitfall though, after you tell Windows the partition etc it says "cant install on this HD", but you have to replace the driver disc with the Windows disc at this point and click the partition again and it installs.
This card saved me a new MB & Processor

5 out of 5 eggsHandy solution

Pros: Picked this up from the Egg to drive an DVD and free up an extra SATA on a Gigabyte880GM-D2H with 4 SATA connectors.
Popped it in, pointed W7 to the driver CD, rebooted with the DVD now plugged to the card and success! 1 SSD and 3 HD's in an cneaper mATX.
Not a hickup, works great with full throughput. A note for that MoBo, the SATA card is very short and does not impede airflow to the NB heatsink, a big plus. In an age where we owe China about a zillion $ in never to be paid debt, getting a non QC'd cheap card that works is cool. Well worth the couple of bucks it cost.

Cons: I can't find fault with this little card, I ran it in a loop overnight. If it fails, which I doubt, I'll update the review.

Other Thoughts: I will probably get another to put in my 'Junk Box' for temp use in setups, it's cheap enough.

2 out of 5 eggsGreat for secondary drives

Pros: Great for secondary drives

Cons: Can't install Windows 7 or XP when this is the only adapter. Not recognized.

Other Thoughts: The SATA controller on my Intel motherboard(the 3rd Intel board out of the four I built 4 years ago) is going bad. Bought this thinking I could use it as the primary controller. Doesn't work. Can only use as secondary controller because Windows 7 and XP won't recognize this adapter during installation.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Customer,

We are sorry to hear that one of our products did not perform as you intended it to. In order to use this card as the primary controller, you must connect it to a working system and install Windows on it. Once Windows is installed, it can be booted from. If you are ever in need of assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you again for purchasing our product. Our business depends on your satisfaction. Please do not hesitate to contact us at support@sybaUSA.com for our warranty service or further questions.

1 out of 5 eggs

Pros: it works with an old HP XW6200

Cons: It doesn't supports hot swap in Windows. Devices do not appear under the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon

Other Thoughts: I bought this card because I needed the "hot swap" functionality. The description mentioned "Hot plug of external SATA devices supported." and that's NOT true. I kind feel like I was robbed.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear customer,

I may assure you you where not robbed. Be sure to check if the card and all of its devices are installed properly. Feel free to contact us.

Our technical support team is available to help 9am-5pm M-F. Feel free to contact us during those business hours at support@sybausa.com

5 out of 5 eggsWorks great

Pros: I use it for with a Sans Digital external enclosure with 3 out of five bays occupied. The port multiplier works fine, I'm running a 3 disk software raid5 array through Debian Linux. It recognized the drives right off, and the driver for it was already in the stock kernel. Performance was as expected.

Cons: SATA II (not III)
Only one eSata port.

Neither mattered to me, I think there are more expensive versions that address both of those issues.

Other Thoughts: I got a RocketRaid card that was bundled with the enclosure that was a total piece of junk. I wrestled with it for quite awhile before I gave up and got this card.

I looked at what was used in the BackBlaze pod and got a card with the same chip (Sil3132).

4 out of 5 eggsSo far, so good

Pros: Easy install and setup

Cons: None so far. It's doing everything I need so far. For some reason, I'm under the impression that you can only use one socket at a time. I thought I read that somewhere before. I've been thinking about an eSata hard drive dock. I need to check and see if the external port works while the other one is in use.

Other Thoughts: I bought this as an extra internal port for a Blu-ray drive, so I haven't used it with any Raid function nor for hard drives. But it's working fine for the Blu-Ray drive and that's all I needed. I was already using all 8 of the sata sockets on my board.

4 out of 5 eggsPretty good!

Pros: Easy install, small size, works good so far.

Cons: No serious cons.

Other Thoughts: i find it annoying when these marketing people claim a Transfer Rate Up to 3Gb/s' when it has a 2.5Gb/s single lane connection. Why do they do that?
