| Connecting a Fusion D400Q or Fusion R400Q to computer system with USB or FireWire requires a hard drive in drive bay 1. | May-06-09 |
| The Fusion D400Q and R400Q must have a hard drive in drive bay 1 when connected via USB, FireWire, or FireWire 800. This requirement is due to the Oxford bridge chip that controls USB and FireWire connectons. Drive bay 1 is the top bay in the Fusion D400Q and the left bay in the Fusion R400Q. As long as there is a drive in drive bay 1, bays 2-4 are unconstrained.
Note: This requirement does not apply to a direct SATA connection, which has no drive bay population requirements. |

| Only the first drive of my Fusion D400Q, D500P, R400P, or R400Q is recognized when I connect via SATA. Why? | Mar-24-10 |
| You are using a SATA port that is not port-multiplier aware. For example, the internal SATA ports in a Mac Pro that may be brought to the PCIe rear panel via an eSATA extender cable are not port-multiplier aware. All of Sonnet's Tempo SATA cards with external ports are port-multiplier aware. |

| The performance of my drive array is significantly less than I expect. | Jun-14-11 |
| Another manufacturer's previously-installed SATA driver may be accessing a Sonnet SATA card in error causing a drive access slowdown. For example, we have seen Fusion D400QR5 performance drop from 200MB/s to under 50MB/s in such circumstances. The solution is to remove the other manufacturer's SATA driver. |
