will explore PCIe 2x 4 SATA ports card that using Marvell chip.

Prefer 88SE9235, non RAID version.

Checked Marvell 88SE9235 - Works !
(By the way, the SATA adapter from the store Pine64 broke after 1 month of work)

I am thinking to get one, is it the same ?

did you need to install some drivers or does it work right away?
Did you take the 12 volt from the drive power port to supply the thermostat main case fan ?

not quite, You have chosen with a different chip, Marvell 88SE9215, he is slower because uses one lane PCI-E
we are talking about chip Marvell 88SE9235 (non RAID) or Marvell 88SE9230 (Raid), using two PCI-E lanes.

It works right out of the box, not doing anything in the system (I personally did not do anything).
Yes

Oh thank you good catch, I originally pick that one but so the cheaper one and did not look at the description hopefully the rock64pro power bus is strong enough to handle 4 drives!

Ma question did you put 4 drives ?
since myself I already got 2 X 3.5 how would you feed the 5 volts to the 2 X 2.5 ? what do you think wold be the best solution?
Safest to risky in order
1-external 5 volts supply
2-an other Pine sata power cable https://www.pine64.org/?product=rockpro64-power-cable-for-dual-sata-drives
taking the 5volts from the existing Pine sata power cable
4- getting 5 volt power from pin 4 and 6 of PI2 bus?
