The AXAGON PCES-SA4M2 PCI-Express controller expands your desktop computer with two SATA III ports and two SATA M.2 disk slots with a transfer speed of up to 6 Gb/s. The combination of a two-port SATA III controller and two SATA M.2 sockets makes the card a very useful tool for computer expansion. You can easily connect up to four hard drives, for example two 3.5" hard drives or optical drives and two SATA M.2 hard drives.
