Product Description:
The IOGEAR SATA 3.0Gbps Dual Profile PCI Express Card adds 1 internal
and 1 external SATA port to your desktop computer. It is great for
users who want to add SATA connectivity to their computers but do not
want to buy a whole new computer. Devices commonly used with this host
adapter are next generation hard drives, Blu-ray optical drives and
HD-DVD drives. The dual profile design of this adapter makes it fit
into low profile or standard cases. This card is designed to work on
the high-bandwidth PCI-Express interface, effectively quadrupling the
amount of available computing bandwidth over the traditional PCI
interface. This results in smoother streaming video, faster music
sharing and lightning-fast access to mass-storage devices. IOGEAR'S
PCI-Express Cards support all serial ATA features, including 3.0Gbps
SATA transfer speeds, Native Command Queuing, port multipliers with
FIS-based switching, programmable output signal swing strengths for
longer external cables or extended backplanes, hot plugging, enclosure
management and ATAPI device support.
