StarTech 2P6GR-PCIE-SATA-CARD 2-Port SATA III PCIe Expansion Adapter Card
Overview
This StarTech 2P6GR-PCIE-SATA-CARD provides a direct connection for two SATA III 6Gbps devices to a computer system through a PCIe x2 slot. It's designed to expand storage capacity for workstations, servers, and particularly Network Video Recorders (NVRs) where additional high-speed drive connections are often required. The card supports RAID 0 configuration, allowing you to stripe data across multiple drives for enhanced read/write performance, beneficial for high-throughput surveillance recording scenarios.
Compatibility
The adapter card requires a PCIe x2 or larger slot (e.g., PCIe x4, x8, x16). It is compatible with Windows operating systems (XP and later) and macOS. It is suitable for adding internal SATA drives to systems running surveillance software or NVR applications that require multiple independent drive connections.
Installation Notes
Installation involves inserting the card into an available PCIe slot and connecting SATA drives using standard SATA data cables (not included). Ensure the system's power supply can accommodate the additional drives. For RAID configurations, setup is typically handled within the system's BIOS or the operating system's storage management utility.
