TEMPO SATA 6GBPS EXPRESSCARD/34 2 PORT CONTROLLER

Are you planning to connect external storage to your computer? There's a good chance the storage enclosure will have two or more interfaces from which to choose, including FireWire®, USB, and eSATA. Your computer has USB ports, and it may have FireWire ports, too. So if you can just plug into your computer's existing ports, why use an eSATA card? Consider the fact that the eSATA interface offers significantly superior performance to that of FireWire 800 and USB 2.0 interfaces. Sonnet's Tempo™ SATA 6Gb/s ExpressCard/34 is an affordable solution for adding eSATA ports to your computer so you can take advantage of this fast interface. This card is perfect for connecting to 6Gb/s SSD drives.

Tempo SATA 6Gb/s ExpressCard/34 is versatile. Its fast 6Gb/s eSATA interface is well suited to deal with the increased bandwidth requirements of 6Gb SSDs. It supports the RAID features of Mac OS® X, Windows 7, and Windows Vista®. It also supports hot-swapping of drives. You can connect optical drives, too. Installation is simple-just plug in the card to your computer's ExpressCard®/34 slot and then start your computer-the necessary drivers are installed automatically.
