| Sonnet engineering has fixed this issue with some Fusion storage systems. This issue was addressed and fixed as follows:
APRIL, 2008: in Fusion D400Q and Fusion D500P systems with serial numbers beginning with J.
MAY 20, 2008: In Fusion D800RAID with serial numbers beginning with G.
All versions of Fusion R400Q and R800RAID are compatible with Seagate ES.2 Drives.
Note: Seagate ES.2 drives have lower performance than Sonnet recommended drives. |

| 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. |
