| What are the benefits of supporting Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC)? | Mar-02-10 |
| Spread Spectrum Clocking is a way to lower electromagnetic interference or EMI. This is important for storage solutions that are required to pass FCC and other agency certifications. All current Serial ATA disk drives implement SSC (some allow you to turn this feature on/off). However, some older SATA drives do not implement SSC. All Sonnet Serial ATA host adapter cards support SSC but will also work with disk drives that do not. |

| Can I hot-swap a disk drive that is attached to any Sonnet Tempo Serial ATA card? | Mar-23-10 |
| Yes, but it depends on the computer's operating system (Mac OS or Windows). Sonnet Tempo SATA PCIe, PCI-X, PCI, and ExpressCard/34 cards support drive hot swapping only when used in Mac computers running Mac OS. SATA drive hot swapping is not supported in a desktop or server PC running Windows XP, Server 2003, or Vista. A SATA drive appears to Windows as a fixed hard drive and there is no mechanism in Windows to prepare the drive for removal except in notebook computers.
Tempo SATA and SATA Pro ExpressCard/34 cards support drive hot swapping in both Mac and Windows notebook computers. |

| Can the Tempo SATA cards co-exist with other manufacturers' Serial ATA cards? | Oct-27-09 |
| Often, yes. Sometimes, not. Some other manufacturers' drivers may incorrectly assume a Sonnet card is their SATA card which may cause havoc. The symptoms include significantly slower performance, driver not loading, or both drivers loading and causing and kernel panics as they both try to access the same card. Sonnet recommends removing other manufacturer's card(s) and driver(s) if a problem of this type occurs. |
