(Solved) Strange device appears

[EDalcin]

Hi Folks,

After I install this PCI-E to 4 x SATA3.0 Expansion Card, this device shows up:
 

 

Is this {ok, reasonable, expected}? Should I do something? Worries? 

 

Thanks in advance.

A little weird, but that looks like an unusual controller, it should be fine but please post the diagnostics

Thanks! I just generated it, but I'm wondering if it is safe to post as public?

Yes, make sure "anonymize diagnostics" is selected if you have concerns.

Everything looks, when I said unusual controller, I meant the fact that it is a 4 port Asmedia controller, and AFAIK there aren't any, it could only be a single controller with a port multiplier or a dual controller on the same PCB, and it's the latter, the extra device could because of having the two controllers on the same PCIe link, but it should't cause any issues, just ignore it.

Thanks! Very useful. Please just clarify this: "and AFAIK there aren't any". I don't get it. What is "AFAIK"?
