[SOLVED] Installing & Using IOCREST #5 Port M.2 To SATA3.0 Adapter ?

[Coast Guard]

Hi Gang

Continuing to solve issue of expended slots in a Dell Precision 3620: Since all available slots, (including onboard sata) NEED to be occupied, I'm now considering an IOCREST 5 Port M.2 To SATA3.0 Adapter (with) eSATA 4 Port PCI Bracket. This will provide additional sata to esata ports eliminating necessity to occupy a PCIe slot and allow air flow for a GT1030. Aside from reading the reviews which indicate need for a heatsink, and its delicate construction, I'm inquiring if anyone else has any experience with the IOCREST M.2 Card? In practical use I'd only have need for occasional use of #2-3 external drives.

Thank You For Any Feedback
Mike
