Scheda interfaccia InLine 2 porte SATA 6Gb/s x1 PCIe 2.0 RAID 0 / 1 / SPAN

The InLine Interface Card 2 Port SATA 6Gb/s x1 PCIe 2.0 RAID 0 / 1 / SPAN is a low-profile expansion card that adds two internal SATA 6Gb/s ports to a system via a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and SPAN (concatenation) modes to offer basic redundancy or increased storage performance. The card is intended for systems requiring additional SATA connections and straightforward RAID functionality, with a maximum transfer rate of 6 Gbit/s per port.

Advantages

This InLine card provides reliable SATA 6Gb/s connectivity through a PCIe 2.0 x1 interface, enabling easy expansion of internal storage. The supported RAID 0, RAID 1 and SPAN modes allow flexible data configuration for either improved throughput or basic mirroring for redundancy. Its low-profile form factor makes it suitable for compact desktop and small-form-factor cases, and the straightforward feature set simplifies installation and configuration in typical workstation or home server environments.

Suitable for

• Adding two internal SATA ports to desktops or small servers
• Basic RAID 0 setups for improved sequential performance
• RAID 1 mirroring for simple redundancy
• SPAN/concatenation to combine drives into a single logical volume

How to use

Install the card into an available PCIe 2.0 x1 slot on a powered-off system and secure it in the case. Connect internal SATA cables from the card’s SATA ports to the storage drives. Power on the system and enter the BIOS or RAID utility (if provided) to configure RAID 0, RAID 1 or SPAN according to your needs. If the operating instructions reference the third-party website 'Drivers-Download', do not use that site; obtain drivers only from the manufacturer or trusted sources.

Recommendations

Use RAID 1 for basic redundancy where data protection is important. Use RAID 0 only when performance is the priority and data loss is acceptable; maintain regular backups. Avoid visiting or downloading from the 'Drivers-Download' site mentioned in included instructions and only install drivers from the official manufacturer or verified vendor sources.
