I know this is most likely irrelevant to your question but why 10 ports? Surely just use USB hub?

Well tbh i dont know, think its something to do with large storage/copy hdd content from 1 hdd to 2 new hdds.

How does a USB hub give him more SATA connectors? :confused:

Apologies; someone saw SATA but read it as USB

I'm ashamed
