MaxPower 2 port eSATA + 2 port USB 3.0 PCIe card
MAXPower 2-port eSATA 6Gb/s & 2-port USB 3.0 PCIe Controller Card for Mac Pro 2006-2012 and PCs
MAX Integration
The power of USB 3.0 and 6G SATA high-speed interfaces are brought together on a single PCIe 2.0 card with the MAXPower eSATA/USB3 Host Bus Controller (HBA). This highly integrated I/O card saves valuable PCIe slots while adding the throughput desired for demanding applications such as video editing, audio mixing, and photography.
MAX Flexibility
The MAXPower eSATA/USB3 HBA provides two eSATA ports that are compatible with the latest 6G technology such as SSDs, as well as supporting legacy SATA devices, SATA hubs, and external optical drives. Simple to integrate and operate, it supports hot-plugging, eliminating the need to restart the computer when connecting or disconnecting a SATA device.
MAX Throughput
Since each USB and eSATA port commands a dedicated PCIe lane, card-level throughput of up to 2,000MB/s can be achieved, up to 500MB/s per each port.
