PCIe x1 to 4-port SATA 3.0 expansion card based on Marvell 88SE9215 controller.
The LRST9615-4I is a specialized storage expansion card designed to extend SATA connectivity in servers and workstations. Utilizing the Marvell 88SE9215 I/O controller, this card converts a single PCIe 2.0 x1 lane into four independent SATA 3.0 (6Gbps) ports, addressing the limited number of native SATA interfaces on many motherboards.
Engineered for reliability and performance, the card supports advanced features such as Native Command Queuing (NCQ), hot-plugging, and Port Multiplier FIS-based switching. It is fully compliant with SATA 3.0 specifications and maintains backward compatibility with SATA 2.0 (3Gbps) and SATA 1.0 (1.5Gbps) hard drives and SSDs, ensuring versatile deployment across various storage environments.
The compact design includes both low-profile and full-height brackets, making it suitable for standard desktop cases as well as space-constrained 2U and 3U server chassis. With support for Windows and Linux operating systems, the LRST9615-4I provides a cost-effective solution for expanding internal storage capacity for data backup, media storage, or entry-level server applications.
Powered by Marvell 88SE9215 chipset for reliable SATA 3.0 performance and stability.
Adds four 6Gbps SATA ports via a single PCIe x1 slot, supporting HDDs and SSDs.
Supports hot-swapping drives and Native Command Queuing for optimized data throughput.
Backward compatible with SATA 2.0/1.0 and works with PCIe x4/x8/x16 slots.
Includes low-profile and full-height brackets for 2U/3U servers and desktop PCs.
