What is the best way to add an eSata connection to my Mac Pro?
Thursday, February 11, 2010 / Hardware
I recently purchased a LaCie external drive with an eSATA, FW800, FW400 and USB connections. I’d like to take advantage of the eSATA connection to my Mac Pro. I’ll have to add a PCI express card to allow me to connect via the eSATA connection – are there any particular cards or brands I should look for?
Thanks,
Ladd
If compatible, I would recommend you look at this eSATA extender cable. It will take SATA connections available on the Mac Pro logic board and let you convert them into eSATA connections.
