I've been browsing around amazon a little bit looking for decent PCIe card --> SATA port options, but for some god forsaken reason, I can only find comically large 1x cards (I found a PCIe 1x to 16 SATA... SIXTEEN!), yet the highest amount of ports I can seem to find on an x4 card is six...

Anyone got options, ideas, better places to look, etc? May alternatively go for a PCIe 4x --> 2x mini SAS, then break those out to 4x SATA drives each, but the only ones I've found on Amazon have been like £100.
