Nope...but try it and share your impression!

Send it back and get a refund, when it's not working. ;)

I just wonder... What kind of 4 x sata 3.0 it would provide over a pci-e channel that connects to the bus with 10Gbps (about 1000MBps)... Might work fine on HDD's but not too good with SSD's for sure...

never tried it but its pretty cheap for a raid card... and not sure why its called raid when it doesn't specify which raid configs it supports.. looks more like a standard sata card to provide more ports or to provide sata 3 to a computer that may only have sata 2.

According to Amazon reviews you should stay away. it seems it will not fit in a PCIe 1x slot. Take a look at the product photo. The connector is too large and must fit in PCIe 4x or greater slot. This Aleratec company seems to make HDD duplicators. Maybe these cards are in their products.
