40 How does hot-swap functionality work?Mar-02-10
Hot-swap functionality enables you to connect and disconnect drives without having to power down your computer. This does not mean you can simply pull out a drive at any time; you must put away ("eject", "unmount", "dismount") the drive volume. For Mac OS X users, simply drag the drive icon associated with the drive(s) you wish to remove to the eject icon on the dock; Windows users using a Tempo SATA ExpressCard/34 may left-click on the eject icon in the taskbar for the drive they wish to eject. Only after the drives are ejected (unmounted) is it safe for you to disconnect the drives or cables. If you do not follow this procedure, data on your drives may become corrupted.

116 Tempo SATA E2P does not work in Slot 2 of a Mac Pro (Early 2008) model.Jan-14-10
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.

Unfortunately, not. The driver was written by the 3Gb SATA controller chip maker, Silicon Image, and they no longer maintain the macOS driver for this chip.
