SeriTek/1SE2 External Serial ATA Host Adapter for PC and Macintosh

The SeriTek/1SE2 Host Adapter extends Serial ATA's 1.5Gbits/sec performance to the outside of the computer chassis, enabling users to take advantage of external Serial ATA enclosures such as the SeriTek/1EN2. With two external ports, the SeriTek/1SE2 provides the high bandwidth necessary to meet the needs of performance-hungry applications while offering hot-swap flexibility similar to that of Universal Serial Bus (USB) and FireWire.

SeriTek/1SE2 works with all Power Macintosh and PC/Windows computers with an available PCI slot.
