p212 controller allows only two logical drive creation? Wht is the solution for more?

[yesilbeyaz]

Hello,
Currently my zero memory p212 card, can only create two logical array. If I buy, 256 MB memory board, can I add two more disk and create four arrays?

P212 Logical Volumes Supported:
Zero Memory, Up to 2 logical volumes
256mb cache, Up to 64 logical volumes

Thank you. As I do not need any raid, can I just get a "SAS 4i SFF-8087 36P 36-Pin Male to 4 SATA 7-Pin Splitter Adapter Cable" and connect hotswap and on board sata port and use 3rd drive.  You can see the cable here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281834805305?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
