@magiictonyy -- any motherboard that you can purchase, either separately, or embedded into a brand-name computer system (HP, Dell, Asus) will have at least 2 SATA ports. You probably have to find a motherboard that is more than 12 years old to find one that does NOT have SATA sockets.

 

Do a Google-search for the model-number of your computer, to find the "specifications" for your specific computer, and a hyperlink to the specifications of the motherboard, which will reveal the number of SATA sockets on the motherboard.
