If you are going to use this as a boot drive, remember that it does NOT support UEFI and Secure Boot. CSM must be enabled as well or the system BIOS will not see the card. Also Windows does NOT include the drivers for this card so you will have to inject them using DISM or some other method. This may pose a problem to some.This does not apply if you are using it as a data drive.

I've used these for several years in freebsd/FreeNAS boxes, and they have been great. Flawless. Plug and play.Extremely P.O.'d to open this one and find the seal broken on the box and the static bag. I bought this to replace one of my "hot spares" that I maintain (used to build a need-it-in-a-hurry box). Now I have to go to the trouble of testing this.

These things are solid, Highpoint cards in general.We've been using them for a very long time. (Probably over 15 years)Not a single card has ever failed or lost any data. (We've had other manufactures fail, even Adaptec, we dumped them all and stuck with Highpoint)Easy to install and easy to use.One of its best features is the GUI interface. Its clean and gives you a lot of info and options.You can configure RAID options on the fly, even while the server is in use, like:RAID1 to RAID5, Expanding RAID, Replacing failed drives, and more.For RAID rebuilds you can even set the priority level (low, med, high), so you don't disrupt live server access (Intel Rapid Raid could take some pointers on this one)It has email notification, and a built in buzzer for failed drives.You can set health monitoring to repair bad sectors, or test drives.In our latest experiment...We bought this 640L card to upgrade an older RocketRAID 2220 card. Thought it would be a good test to just swap the cards in the server, and plug in the existing hard drives as is. Amazing they all came up as if the older card was still hosting them.So we can say that at least upgrading to a newer card, will retain all your data. (still backup first, just in case).That in itself is amazing. You can' do this with lot of other manufactures, without rebuilding the data.As for the naysayers, complaining about UEFI.So what if it won't boot in this mode. You can create multiple logical RAID drives.Just make a small MBR 250GB RAID drive for your C, or boot drive.And make a second GPT RAID drive from the rest of the space.Best of both worlds!And this card is plenty fast.At 2x PCIe that's still 2.5GT/s (or 500MB/s)On this 640L card we installed 3 x 6TB WD RED PLUS (thats FRX not FAX) drives in RAID5 (12TB usable).CrystalMarkv3-64 test: (Read 211MB/s, Write 175MB/s) - that is max output for these drives.You want UEFI, and ever faster speeds.How much does this card cost?Sure go spend 10x the price of this card. To get LSI or whatever you think is great.Bottom line, you get way more than what you pay for with this card!

Purchased to provide a PCI SATA expansion of 2 extra JBOD ports. Perfect - able to boot from these ports (SATA HDD and DVD fitted) - from a Gigabyte GA-Z97-D3H Mobo. This freed up the M2 port so able to develop machine - happy days!Boot process is a bit more contorted initially as it restarts a couple of times when it finds the card, but both the HDD and DVD appear in the GB BIOS boot menu. The card itself is exceptionally well made - the ports accept cables with socket clips which latch into the card. Well packaged with instruction booklet and SATA cables, but no micro DVD with drivers; but they were not required.RAID Bios can be downloaded from the Highpoint web site if needed. This version of the 620 was the RA suffix - not shown on the description - it has no pinned headers or buzzer which are shown on the photos in top corner of PCB directly above SATA connectors . They don't affect my use so not affected. Overall -a great card which does precisely what I wanted it to do so 10/10 and 5*

Die Karte von Assmann konnte am eSata-Port nur 4 Festplatten in einem Case ansprechen - kein Fehler sondern eine Limitierung des verwendeten Chipsatzes. Leider weiß selbst der Hersteller Ansmann nichts davon - ahnungsloser Supporttechniker am Telephon.Dieses Modell von Highpoint kann wie es eigentlich üblich ist bei solchen Controllern 5 Festplatten am eSata-Port getrennt ansprechen.Wird unter WIndows 7 x64 eingesetzt - Installation problemlos - Betrieb problemlos. Es hängen 2 HD-Cases mit je 5 Festplatten an den 2 eSATA-Ports - alle 10 Festplatten sind einzeln ansprechbar.Performance ist super - beim Kopieren über Netzwerk auf eine Festplatte sehe ich bei großen Dateien 100MB/s Datendurchsatz - mehr gibt das GBit-Netzwerk auch nicht her.Zwar etwas teurer als vergleichbare Produkte (nur 2 Ports anstatt wie meist 2 externe und 2 interne) - den Preis aber meiner Meinung nach wert. Bei einem güsntigeren Preis hätte es 5 Sterne gegeben.

Habe zwei 2TB Platten in Raid 0 an der Karte laufen.Die Schreib/Leserate hat sich beinahe verdoppelt.Ist zwar kein richtiges Raid aber die Karte funktioniert ohne Probleme.Zu dem Preis völlig in Ordnung.
