Used with high-performance drive enclosures like
this 5-Bay
SATA Port Multiplier Enclosure, this card can manage the data flow of up to five drives in one enclosure through a single
cable! With the above enclosure using 5 SATA hard drives in a RAID 0
array, the card can typically achieve sustained disk writes of 130 MB/sec and
reads of 140 MB/sec!
Supports Serial ATA II Port Multiplier 1.0 Specifications revision 1.1 and
used with SATA Port Multiplier Enclosures containing multiple SATA hard drives,
supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10!

1 drive.
