| How do I use Sonnet's SATA cards in VMWare/vSphere 5.5+? | Mar-27-18 |
| The "in-box" driver loads for generic AHCI devices, but it won't start unless the specific device (ASMedia, for example) is listed in the "driver map files". They are located in /etc/vmware/driver.map.d/ahci.map in the vSphere system. Fortunately, Andreas Peetz, who runs a must-know VMWare site called www.v-front.de, describes this in some detail "How to make your unsupported SATA AHCI Controller work with ESXi 5.5 and 6.0, and has an xahci.map you can easily install that will fully enable the driver. We tested it, it seems to work for ASMedia cards. |

| Do Sonnet SATA cards support NexStar Dual Bay Drive Docks and Icy Box IB-3640SU3 with SATA interface? | Oct-04-19 |
| No. There is something non-standard about these products that are not supported by in-box AHCI SATA drivers. There is nothing Sonnet can do to fix this. |

| In a Mac Pro, can I install Windows on a Tempo SSD or SSD Pro Plus? | Jul-15-19 |
| You can't run Bootcamp on the Sonnet Tempo SSD or SSD Pro Plus. However, you can format the SSD on the Tempo SSD or SSD Pro Plus with a GPT (GUID) partition map, install Windows 10 in UEFI mode on one SSD, and boot from it.
You must install the Bootcamp drivers (not the Bootcamp assistant). To get the Bootcamp drivers you start Bootcamp and look for a menu item to download Apple support. That downloads machine specific Apple drivers. There may be a way to get those drivers directly from Apple's website but we don't have the link. You must install this support before the machine reboots after a Windows install. Note that when the Windows installer sees the GPT partition map, it defaults to UEFI mode.
Note that option-boot will not work. This is how you select the startup disk...
•If you boot the macOS, you can open System Preferences->Startup Disk, and select the Windows disk
•If you boot Windows, you open Control Panel->Bootcamp and select the macOS disk. (When you install the Bootcamp drivers, you get this control panel in Windows that lets you select the macOS.)
•Or, you can zap the PRAM, which will default back to the maOS.
Only Windows 10 is supported; and there is an install order if you put macOS and Windows on two SSDs (install macOS first, Windows second). Be prepared to clean the disk and install more than once; the Windows installer sometimes hangs during the install. |
