Silicon Image SATA 3G is a single-chip, one-lane PCI Express to 2-port Serial ATA (SATA) II host controller that brings server-class features to the desktop. SiI3132 also supports all Serial ATA II features, including 3.0 Gbps SATA II transfer speeds, Native Command Queuing, port multipliers with FIS-based switching, programmable output signal swing strengths for longer external cables or extended backplanes, hot plugging, enclosure management and ATAPI device support.

• External SATA II (eSATA) Connectors
• Supports SATA II transfer rate of 3.0Gbps
• Supports two command-issuance mechanisms:

* Efficient in both embedded and PC implementations
* Reduces dependency on bridge behavior

• Hot-plug capability
• Low Profile PCI Form Factor
 
Marvell 6G host controllers offer cost-effective solutions for connecting Serial ATA (SATA) or Parallel ATA (PATA) peripherals to a PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 host. Each host controller supports one or more 6 Gb/s SATA and one 133 MB/s PATA peripheral interface ports and a one-lane PCIe 2.0 host interface. In addition, it features advanced hardware encryption to protect user data on the fly and hardware RAID to offload the host CPU.

• 6 Gb/s SATA PHY with speed negotiation to backward support 3.0 and 1.5 Gb/s
• Supports Port Multiplier FIS-based or Command-based switching
• Supports PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 motherboard
• hardware RAID to offload the host CPU

• Low Profile PCI Form Factor
