How many SSDs I connect to a pcie express slot with Sonnet Technologies Tempo 6Gb / s SATA PCIe 2.0?

It comes with an extension plate that allows a second drive to be connected. Not a problem in a Mac Pro (2012 and earlier) which has a lot of room. Can't say about a specific Windows machine as they vary in size, but in general will fit most boxes.

Can't say. I didn't have to update tho. This is what I bought:OCZ Technology 256GB Vertex 4 Series SATA 6.0 GB/s 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive (SSD) With Industry's Highest 120K IOPS

What type of drive do you have? Yo need dual raid SSD drives sata 3+ to get around those speeds.

I have eight 4TB drives, totaling to 32 TB's. Haven't tried 5TB drives.Do note that I'm no longer using the included RAID controller though, it had too many issues. I opted for the SANS DIGITAL HA-DAT-4ESPCIE PCI-Express x8 SATA II (3.0Gb/s) Controller Card on Newegg, had no issues with it since.I think the bus supports 64-bit address mapping, so the capacity limitation per drive is most likely a limitation of the controller and not the multiplier that's built into the SAN enclosure.

I was not able to achieve full SATA 3 speeds with mine. I'm not sure what the reason is, but it is possible that other expansion cards on the system are using all available PCI-e lanes. YMMV

Prelim answers are, yes for the ssd (that is how I run them), but, since one internal slot is loaded with the ssd, there are only three left for additional drives. So, I think you will be able to run 3 3-TB additional storage drives, plus the USB slots. The preferred HP solution will be to put a Small Sata SSD onto the motherboard for use of the OS. See Amazon: Lite On Plextor M5M 0.85-Inch 256GB mSATA Solid State Drive (M5M 256GB) The result is an ultra-fast OS and no loss of Mass-Storage.

Hi i purchased Transcend 256 GB SATA III 6Gb/s MTS400 42 mm M2. ssd but it's not compatible and not visible on ahci mode and it's very slow on compatible mode, can any one confirm that MyDigitalSSD is visible on AHCI mode and there no compatibility issue

Ssd is hibrid drive It runs like memori cards Which will be instent response

It works with slot designated for mSATA (MO-300) standard SSD ONLY. It will NOT work with Mini PCIe slot designed for WWAN, LAN, WiFi card etc.

There are (5) Sata-3.0, 6gb. connections available. And it is possible to have (5) 3.5 hard-drives.

1- supports sata 3 up to 6Gbps. Backward compatible to sata 2 (3Gbps) and sata1 (1.5Gbps) specification. 2- No! This is an all in one unit. I'm using 2 64GB SSD drivers and set it up in a raid . It speed up your computer 100x better. It almost instantly the changes to the next window. I like this setup and it is in a nice package.

Yes, but why use this old card now for RAID? The SATA supports only 150 MB/s. Most new drives will be SATA III, 6Gb/s or up to 550 GB/s. Just my $0.02 worth.

Yes this will work in a PCIe 2.0 slot, all 3.0 cards are backwards compatible.

No, I don't think so, from a data standpoint, this is just a passthrough device, so if you connect a 6Gbps SSD in one of the bays, the bay itself will not affect the speed. I use this as a holder of my drives for my RAID6 array, and the drives are mechanical, so my limiting factor is the throughput of the RAID controller first, and secondarily the read/write performance of the drives. I'm getting over 3Gbps to this array, so that is further evidence that the device itself does not affect SATA throughput.

I am only using the USB3 function of the card. I planned to use the SATA III port for possible future expansion. The set up I use is one USB3 port going to a Seagate 2 TB expansion hard drive (for backup and system images) and the other port to a USB3 hub. I chose this card because of the dual functionality and price.

For budget best value builds I recommend the use of Samsung Evo SSD ( read=520mb/s write=520mb/s ) If you want faster speed use a Samsung SM951 SSD with PCIe adapter ( read=1700mb/s write=1700mb/s ).Or you can spend more money and put an Intel 750 PCIe SSD in it.

I believe (by looking at the specs on the EVGA website...since I was too lazy to open my case) that there are 2 PCIE 6+2 Pin connectors on this model.
