"But my [Korean drama] show isn't done yet," my friend messaged me one evening. "I'm streaming them through my slow Internet." As some of you may know, some of these movies and drama can only be watched by streaming. However, I always tend to keep my old time favorites on my computer or my NAS. Like my friend, I am one of those people who appreciate Asian drama that are played through my home theater system. You just sit back, relax, and enjoy your time. There was one time when my brother caught me chilling out on the couch watching one of those movies. "You've watched that so many times. Let me hook you up with new ones," he said. So, my collection grew and grew until I started running low on space. You can probably see where this is going by now. I soon went to the local computer store to pick up more hard drives, but this posed yet another problem: I will soon run out of SATA ports. Having spent quite a bit on hard drives already, I cannot see a quick solution to this. However, what we have brought in to review today is a cheap, quick, and dirty solution to address this problem, but be prepared for a mouthful of technical words. It's called the SYBA HyperDuo SY-PEX40052. For just $25 at press time, this little board will fit snugly into one of your PCIe x1 slots. Though it may not give you the most optimal speeds in transfering files, it will get the job done at getting you more SATA ports. Read on to see how it performs!
