Limited to 3GB SATA connections
Review byDavid S.
It's a simple device to add external SATA connections by connecting to internal unused SATA ports. I have not been successful getting it to work on my PC. Documentation says only 3GB SATA connections supported. Most modern hard drives support 6GB SATA so this item is a bit dated.

eSata ports are wonderful as Boot and Alt-Boot drives in PC's.
Review byRetieO
I've been using these eSata ports to connect my Boot and Alt-Boot drives to PC's. It's convenient to swap to a "recent" working copy of a boot drive instead of risking it all when Windows OS problem occurs.

Essential to save money to add many hard drives to a PC
Review byroirraW "edor" ehT
I use these with Adaptec ASR-78165 controllers so that I can have many hard drives hooked up to desktop PC #1 that are actually housed in desktop PC #2. I use Windows Storage Spaces set up so that two hard drives can fail at any time and I won't lose any data.

Review bySteve in Sarasota
Worked perfectly without additional drivers on my Win Server 2013 Ent installation. Allows pass-through of port multipliers in my external enclosure. Not all cards do, so be sure to check before buying an eSata card if you need that functionality. For a single drive it doesn't matter.
