It's a good price if you're in need of extra SATA III based ports and able to deal with the rebate.
Just understand that there is no RAID feature and each SATA port does not have the locking latch, which means a cable can easily be dislodged when working in ultra small form factor cases.
Yeah good price, just be aware that it's going to bottleneck a mid-tier or better modern SSD. "Most" motherboards' integrated SATA 6Gb controllers are faster.
I am looking for a decent controller as I have a first generation i7 and do not want to spend $300 for a motherboard that’s comes with SATA3. No locking mechanism is a deal breaker for me
