Introduction

The PEXSAT34RH 4-Port PCI Express 2.0 SATA Controller Card with HyperDuo adds 4

AHCI SATA III ports to a computer through a PCIe slot (x2), delivering multiple internal

6Gbps connections for high-performance hard drives and Solid State Drives (SSDs).

Featuring HyperDuo technology, the SATA card oers SSD auto-tiering which lets

you balance the performance advantages of SSD storage with the cost-eectiveness

and large capacity of standard hard drives. By combining SSD and HDD drives into a

single volume (up to 3 SSD + 1 HDD), HyperDuo discreetly works in the background to

identify and move frequently accessed les to the faster SSD drive(s) for improved data

throughput – up to 80% of SSD performance! (Note: The HyperDuo automatic storage

tiering feature is compatible with Windows® XP, Vista, 7 and 8 only)

The PCIe SATA controller card supports Port Multiplier (PM), enabling multiple SATA

drives to be connected to one port over a single cable, for a total of 7 drives (Up to 4

drives through PM on one port, and a single drive to the remaining 3 ports). Plus, the

SATA controller card oers an eective hardware RAID solution, with native RAID (0, 1,

1+0) 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

Management Utility Installation

(Optional - Windows only)

RAID and/or HyperDuo conguration can be accomplished either through the

integrated card-BIOS utility, or through the Marvell Storage Utility (MSU). Details for

installing the MSU are below.

To install the Marvell Storage Utility (MSU) in Windows:

1. Run the MSUSetup.exe, selecting Next and accepting the license agreement when

prompted – the default installation options are recommended.

2. After installing the Apache2 HTTP Server (which is a built-in component of the

installation package), the installation may trigger a Windows Security Alert on some

versions of Windows, please allow access.

3. Before opening the MSU, verify that Active Scripting or JavaScript is enabled in

the browser.

a. Internet Explorer

i. From the menu bar, select Tools > Internet Options.

ii. Select the “Security” tab, then “Local Intranet”, then “Custom level”.

iii. In the list of settings, scroll down to Scripting > Active scripting.

iv. Select “Enable”, then click “OK” to conrm the selection.

Instruction Manual

b. Firefox

i. From the menu bar, select Tools > Options

ii. Select the “Content” tab and ensure that the “Enable Javascript” option is

checked (should be by default) – if it is not, select it and click “OK”

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.

Port Multiplier

Port Multiplier (PM) allows for multiple SATA drives (up to 4) to be connected to a

single SATA host port. PM allows for easy, cost-eective storage scalability both inside

and outside the PC or server. It is commonly used to connect a multi-drive SATA/eSATA

hard drive enclosure/backplane using a single cable. This greatly expands the storage

capabilities of the SATA controller beyond its normal port count. Please visit StarTech.

com for more SATA controllers that support the Port Multiplier feature.

NOTE: Only one port on the PEXSAT34RH can use the Port Multiplier feature at a time.

The card supports up to 4 drives connected via Port Multiplier, 7 drives total.

Mac OS does not support Port Multiplier.
