SATA PCIe Adapter 16 Port SATA III to PCI Express 3.0 X1 Controller
Expansion Card ASM1064 JBM575 Chip
from newegg .ca at under $140 w/o taxes.

There is only some $20 difference or so from some of the 8 port cards
to this one.
There are drivers mentioned for Windows but I can't find anything when
I'm searching
for linux + PCIe + card + SATA controller + drivers + ASM 1064 so
thought I would
tap the community to find answer(s).
