Operating System Requirements: Mac OS X 10.5+ Description: This software enables the use of all versions of the Tempo SATA E2P, Tempo SATA Edge ExpressCard/34 and Tempo SATA ExpressCard/34 host controllers running Mac OS X version 10.5.8-macOS 10.12.6. This version has been updated to be Thunderbolt technology-aware. This driver does not support macOS 10.13 and newer.
After Apple released Apple Mac Pro EFI Firmware v1.3 on 3/27/08, the Sonnet Tempo SATA E2P card no longer worked in slot 2 of the Mac Pro Early 2008 Model 3,1. Slot 2 is a x16 PCIe 2.0 slot. The solution is to move the Tempo SATA E2P card to either slot 3 or 4, which are x4 PCIe 1.1 slots. The Tempo SATA E2P card works fine in the PCIe 2.0 slots in the Mac Pro (Early 2009) Model 4,1.
Sonnet has tested the following cards with the Drobo S:
