i'm using sonnet e4p 4 esata ports. had 2 sil3132 cards , did not work. 1 work @ time. suspect drivers have not been tested or updated running 2 simultaneously. , considering how hard siig update drivers in first place, don't hold breath.

sonnet e4p able add 1-5 port multiplier 8 esata ports. in fact, have added 4 port multipliers 20 esata ports. have external backup drive 5 internal drives (one ssd raid on 2 internal sata ports).
