777995 2009-05-29 10:05:00 I got one of these with a new motherboard.
Havent tryed it yet.
Couple of questions:
1/ Once this device is fitted, can you hot connect a SATA drive?
2/ Is there a front mounted version available?

777996 2009-05-29 10:15:00 Depends if it says it supports hot swapping. Some cases have the ports, and some card readers have the ports on them, along with firewire, audio, and USB Speedy Gonzales (78)
777997 2009-05-29 16:26:00 The info in the Mobo manual only says how to fit it, not how to use it. Driftwood (5551)

778001 2009-05-30 06:36:00 OK so how can I tell for sure. These ones are E/SATA
Just had a look on trademe, didn't see any front mounted ones.
I looked at fitting mine on the front but the leads are too short.
