Which is very similar in function to the one I have, only mine is for installation in a 5¼″ case slot. When I bought it years ago I was thing about a desktop dock like yours, because that can also be used with my laptop. But I found it neater to install it cleanly into my PC case. :-) > It's worked fine for me, but no I haven;t used it much - I shall probably be > using it a bit very soon as I finish building my new system... When I was reading up on the differences between SAS and SATA (because some enclosures and cases use a SAS backplane), one of the items was multipath support: SAS can address several drives, SATA only one. So eSATA is limited to a single drive per cable. -- Grüße | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network.
