Sata multiplier

I'v got this pre built pc c05997277from three years ago https://support.hp.com/ch-fr/document/c05997277 and I would like to expand it's storage. 

For now it has 2 sata slots and one m.2 slot all used.


I thought of two solutions; since the wifi slot is an m.2 slot I was wondering if it can be used for some extra storage (I dont care about wifi connection for my pc)


if not I found this extension card https://www.amazon.fr/starall-adaptateur-ports-Convertisseur-Multiplier/dp/B079M87ZVN/ref=psdc_2908498031_t2_B016BJ39WO#customerReviews

and I was thinking if it would work with one of the two sata slots

Yes you can use sata multiplyer, but the bandwidth will be shared.

If you have 1 to 4, then for sata 3 (6gbps), if running at the same time each will only get 1.5gbps.

This seems convenient since I'd be using HDDs

 

thanks !
