Question SATA ports extension - can this really work?

[finwizz]

Does this really extend 1 SATA port to 4 SATA ports? Will it not overload the Motherboard side of the port?

It does not change 1 SATA into 4.

"connects a RAID or PCIe controller with an SFF-8087 port to 4 discrete SATA drives; Mini SAS to SATA adapter provides reliable internal connectivity between a Serial attached SCSI controller card in a computer system and direct attached storage devices with a SATA connector"

Absolutely not the function you're looking for.
