741810 2009-01-24 23:51:00 Hi all,

My current PC has only got four SATA ports on the motherboard - is it possible to buy a PCI card that has more ports on it?

Thanks :)

You can only fit so many on one

The sunix cards (from my limited experience) are cheap and good.

you should easily find what you want on pricespy.
