The TL-D1600S includes both the required PCIe host card and the external cable needed to connect it directly to a Windows or Linux PC. So, if you're planning to install it on a standard Windows PC, you should not need to buy any additional interface card or cable - the included card and SFF-8088 cable are intended exactly for that use case.

The package contents include:

PCIe Host Card: QXP-1600eS SATA expansion card
Cable: 4 × SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 Mini-SAS cable (1 meter)

(Your PC must have an available PCIe slot (the included QXP-1600eS is a PCIe Gen3 x8 card)
