eSATA II RAID ExpressCard 34

• Adds two high-speed eSATA ports to Windows Express Card/34 or Express Card/54 equipped notebooks
• Supports RAID 0, 1,5 and 10 with data transfer rates up to 3.0Gb/s (300MB/s)
• Supports two individual eSATA drives for use as RAID 0 or RAID 1
• Supports up to 10 external drives*

Use this card to connect two external eSATA hard drives to your Express Card 34 or Express Card 54  equipped laptop computer to use as RAID 0 or RAID 1.  Or through its support of SATA Port Multipliers, the two ports can handle up to ten hard drives*!  

Used with high-performance drive enclosures like this 5-Bay Trayless SATA Port Multiplier Enclosure, this card can manage the data flow of up to five drives in one enclosure through a single cable!  With the above enclosure using 5 SATA hard drives in a RAID 0 array, the card can typically achieve sustained disk writes of 130 MB/sec and reads of 140 MB/sec!

Supports Serial ATA II Port Multiplier 1.0 Specifications revision 1.1 and used with SATA Port Multiplier Enclosures containing multiple SATA hard drives, supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10!

*Support for 10 drives requires the use of drive enclosures employing port multipliers (like Sonnet's Fusion 500P or this SATA Port Multiplier Enclosure, Trayless 5-Bay). When using an enclosure without a port multiplier (such as this 2 Bay External SATA II RAID Enclosure), the card will support up to 2 drives.
