Introduction

The PEXSAT34RH 4 Port PCI Express SATA III Controller Card adds 4 AHCI SATA III ports

to a computer through a PCIe slot (x2), providing an internal 6Gbps connectivity

solution from a single card.

Compliant with SATA revision 3.0, our PCI Express SATA controller provides up to 6Gbps

of data bandwidth to utilize the speeds of high performance hard drives and solid

state drives (SSD), along with Port Multiplier (PM) support on each port which allows

for multiple SATA drives to be connected over a single cable.

Also, this PCI Express SATA RAID card includes an onboard heatsink to help keep the

card running cool, supports RAID 0, 1, and 1+0, and can handle up to 7 SATA drives

total when using Port Multiplier.

This PCIe SATA 6g card is backed by a 2-year StarTech.com warranty and free lifetime

technical support.

Installation

Hardware 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. StarTech.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.

1. Turn your computer o and any peripherals connected to the computer (i.e. Printers,

external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power

supply on the back of the computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.

2. Remove the cover from the computer case. See documentation for your computer

system for details.

3. Locate an open PCI Express x2 slot and remove the metal cover plate on the rear of

the computer case (Refer to documentation for your computer system for details).

NOTE: This card will work in PCI Express slots of additional lanes (i.e.x4, x8, or x16 slots).

4. Gently insert the card into the open PCI Express slot and fasten the bracket to the

rear of the case.

NOTE: If installing the card into a small form factor/low prole system, replacing the

pre-installed full prole bracket with the included low prole installation bracket may

be necessary.

5. Connect SATA cables from the ports on the card to the SATA devices inside the

computer.

6. Place the cover back onto the computer case.

7. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other

connectors removed in Step 1.

Instruction Manual

Driver Installation

Windows XP

NOTE: The latest driver is available from www.startech.com.

1. Once the computer has started and the operating system is fully loaded, insert the

provided Driver CD into the computer’s CD/DVD drive.

2. AutoPlay should give you the option to browse the les on the CD or automatically

open the CD.

If AutoPlay does not start, go into “My Computer” and access the CD/DVD drive that

the CD is in.

3. Open the folder “SATA6G_M9128”. Run the le ‘drvSetup.exe’. Follow the onscreen

instructions to complete the driver installation.

Windows Vista/ 7/ 8

The driver is natively supported by newer Operating Systems. The driver should

automatically install through Windows Update.

Instruction Manual

Verifying Installation

Windows

From the main desktop, right-click on “My Computer” (“Computer” in Vista/7/8), then

select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select Device Manager

from the left window panel.

Under the “SCSI and RAID Controllers” category (“Storage Controllers” in Vista or later),

should be a “Marvell 92xx” device. Right-click on the device and select “Properties” to

make sure it is installed and working correctly.

For Windows 7 and 8, if using the native drivers, the card will instead be listed under

the “IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller” category as a “Standard AHCI” device.

How to Use

RAID Conguration

To setup a RAID array using the drives connected to the SATA controller card, the

BIOS level conguration menu must be accessed. To access the conguration menu,

during POST (computer startup), the status display for the controller card will display.

When prompted, pressing [CTRL] + [m] will enter the conguration menu. From the

conguration menu, the detected drives can be congured into any of the supported

RAID modes by following the on screen prompts.
