| 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. |

| 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. |

| The Sonnet Tempo SATA card does not work with my Western Digital My Book Premium ES Edition, or Seagate Technology FreeAgent Pro. | Mar-02-10 |
| Sonnet Tempo cards are compatible with most external SATA storage. However, external hard drives with USB 2.0/eSATA dual interface based on the Oxford Semiconductor OXU931DS storage controller chip may not be compatible with Mac OS X when connected via SATA. Known issues are kernel panics occurring when the drive is connected, or the drive not being recognized by the operating system.
