Review on Rivo PCIe SATA Card, 8-Port with 8 SATA Cable, SATA Controller Expansion Card incl. Low Profile Bracket, Marvell 9215 Non-Raid, Bootable as System Disk, Support for 8 SATA 3.0 Devices (SA3014) by Brandon Reid

Great package if you need to add 8 extra SATA drives

Installed on my Linux based UnRaid server and it works great! Currently only my SSD cache drive is connected to it and the rest is connected to MB and another SATA controller. By moving my cache drive to this controller, my dockers booted, decompressed and installed much faster, and it comes with everything you need including SATA and two 1-to-4 power cables, which is amazing. I can't wait to add 6 more drives to my setup (there are only 6 free drive bays). As long as the controller is working properly, this thing will work!

Pros
  • RAID controller
Cons
  • Not as good as it says
