debian-user: I'm looking for a Linux-friendly PCI Express 2.0 x1 host bus adapter with 2 (or more) internal SATA 6 Gbps ports. Does anybody have any comments or recommendations for currently available products? David

If you're looking for something at a consumer price point, any card from StarTech is a good starting point. Most of these cards use AHCI compatible Marvell chipsets and have driver support built into the kernel. If you have a particular question about a model, providing the model number never hurts.

My goal is to use a current SATA 3.0 (6 Gbps) SSD as the system drive in older computers that have SATA 2.0 (3 Gbps) ports and PCIe 2.0 x1 expansion slot(s). How about the StarTech PEXSAT32? http://www.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/HDD-Controllers/SATA-Cards/2-Port-PCI-Express-SATA-6-Gbps-Controller-Card~PEXSAT32 David

Currently I'm considering getting another one, so if anyone knows whether two or more of them in the same machine would be a problem, I'd appreciate hearing about it.

SATA 3.0 is backwards-compatible; you can just use the SATA 2.0 port. Of course, it'll only run at 3Gbps. Also, PCIe 2.0 x1 doesn't actually have the bandwidth for a single 6Gbps SATA port, let alone two.

Yes, I know. I plan to benchmark and usability test it both ways. Even
if the performance is flat compared to motherboard SATA 2.0 ports,
having the extra ports will be useful:
