Sonnet eSATA Extender

SATA-to-eSATA Extension Cable for Mac

Pro

Installation Instructions for eSATA Extender

You Should Have

The following items should be included in your product package:

• One Sonnet eSATA SATA-to-eSATA extension cable

The following items may be required for installation:

• Medium Phillips screwdriver (magnetic tip suggested)

• Flexible metal putty knife (for use in pre-2008 Mac Pro

installations)

System Requirements

The Sonnet eSATA Extender requires the following in order to

install into your system:

• One available PCI Express (PCIe) slot back panel opening

How to Identify Which Mac Pro You Have

The Sonnet eSATA Extender works in all Mac Pro computers,

but the installation procedure differs based on the design. The

installation instructions section of this document is broken into

two sections; instructions for the original Mac Pro design (pre-

2008) and the current model (Early 2008).

The simplest way to identify which model you have is to look

at the memory riser cards (where the RAM is installed). In pre-

2008 Mac Pro computers, the memory riser card components are

oriented the same direction (see Figure 6 on page 3), while in

Early 2008 Mac Pro computers, the components are oriented in

opposite directions (see Figure 30 on page 11).

Instructions for pre-2008 Mac Pro start on the next page;

instructions for Early 2008 Mac Pro start on page 10.

Usage Information

Connecting drives:

•

You must power on and connect drive enclosures to the Sonnet eSATA

Extender before you turn on your computer. Your computer will

not recognize the drives if you connect them or power on the

enclosures after startup.

•

This product does not support drive enclosures with port multipliers.

The Sonnet eSATA Extender merely enables you to connect

additional hard disk drives to the Mac Pro’s logic board, which

does not support multipliers. Use only enclosures with direct

connections (one eSATA cable per drive).

Swapping drives:

•

This product does not support drive hot-swapping or hot-plugging.

The Mac Pro’s logic board does not support drive swapping; you

must shut down the computer before changing drives.

Disconnecting drives:

•

You must shut down your computer before you power off or disconnect

drive enclosures from the Sonnet eSATA Extender. Your computer will

not recognize the drives if you connect them or power on the

enclosures after startup.

Powering Off drives:

•

DO NOT power off a drive connected to the Sonnet eSATA Extender

while the computer is on, even if you have “ejected” it (selected Eject

from a menu or dragged the drive to the eject icon in the dock). Your

computer may experience a kernel panic.

Identifying drives connected to the Sonnet eSATA Extender:

•

System Proﬁler and Disk Utility identify drives connected to the

eSATA Extender as internal drives, but do not assign them bay

numbers. However, Disk Utility will identify the drives as “Drive

4” and “Drive 5”; drives mounted in the computer are assigned

numbers 0–3.
