Product Description

Sonnet's Tempo SATA X4i 4-port Serial ATA Host Controller for PCI-X enables you to connect up to 4 additional internal drives for the perfect balance of flexible expandability and superior performance. This card is an ideal companion to our G5 Jive internal drive mount system for Power Mac G5 computers.

Flawless plug and play operation........2007-06-12

No need to go on and on here because this is a simple product that simply gets the job done. power down your G5, install the card, power back up the tower. That's it. 100% flawless plug and play. Too bad the $3,000 G5 didn't come with more than 2 SATA ports so I had to buy this in the first place.
