Operating System Requirements: Windows 7 (64-bit) Description: This software enables the use of all versions of the Tempo SATA E2P, Tempo SATA Edge ExpressCard/34 and Tempo SATA ExpressCard/34 host controllers in computers running Windows 7, 64-bit ONLY.
Note: This driver does NOT support Windows 7 32-bit.
Note: Silicon Image has discontinued driver support for the Si3132 controller used in these cards. The driver appears to work in Windows 10 64-bit, but without Silicon Image support, Sonnet is unable to offer troubleshooting support for Windows 10.
Note: SATA cards are not supported under Windows 7 or Windows Vista under Boot Camp on unibody MacBook Pro computers.
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.
Sonnet has tested the following cards with the Drobo S:
Tempo SATA E2P..............................compatible
