Literally just had this problem on my mATX board. Had 4 SATA drives, my old SATA SSD and 3 storage HDDs. Swapped the SATA SSD for a NVMe SSD, but added 2 hard drives. So I was short 1 SATA connection.
I'm assuming that since you have an mATX board with an Arc GPU, that your only open slot is a 1x PCIe slot like mine. All of the "legit" LSI HBA cards I found had PCIe 4x connectors.
I got this HBA card with a commonly used ASMedia controller.

No performance or stability issues so far.
