It's A Cable

Comments: Don't buy this by mistake if your looking for a KVM SWITCH... Oops! Next time I'll have to pay better attention! Paid the re-stock which was processed smoothly and it only cost me about $xx for the lesson...

X4 or X1?

HighPoint RocketRAID 2640X4 PCI-Express x4 Four-Port SATA and SAS RAID Controller  Card

Pros: Seemed perfect for my application. Probably would have worked great if I'd have had an open PCI-X4 slot.

Cons: Called HighPoint to ask about X1/X4 jumper so I could use this card on the current MB with PCI X1and migrate to PCI X4 later. They did not mention that the actual PCI-X slot was incompatible... I probably should have known but it will not physically fit in the X1 slot. Having not installed any PCI Express cards except Video cards, I did not realize this limitation.

Overall Review: Don't buy this card and expect dual use in PCI-X1 and PCI-X4 slots.
