Introduction
10Gtek SSTN2X1 PCI Express SATA III Controller Card (6 Gbps) gives you the option to add 2
internal or external SATA ports to your computer, through a single PCI Express (x1) card slot.
The card features on board jumper selection, which enables you to configure the card to
provide 2 internal or external SATA III ports, or one of each, as needed. The SATA III card
features Port Multiplier (PM) support on each port, which allows multiple drives to be
connected over a single cable when necessary to maximize the number of SATA device
connections while reducing the amount of cabling required. The card is fully compliant with
the SATA revision 3.0 specification (up to 6Gbps of data bandwidth), enabling you to utilize
the speeds of high performance hard drives and Solid State Drives (SSD), as well as
SATA-based optical drives (CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, Blu-Ray). The PEXESAT322I SATA III
Controller card is backed by our 2-year manufacturer warranty and free lifetime technical
support.

Installation
WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by
static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case
or touching your PCI Express card. 10Gtek.com recommends that you wear an anti-static
strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable,
discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal
surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI
Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
