  • Gspeed ES Pro connect to Macbook Pro?

    Posted by Amy Wilson on January 4, 2013 at 4:09 pm

    Is there any way to connect an ES Pro (mini SAS) to a new Macbook Pro (non retina)? (other than getting a thunderbolt PCIe box)…. adapters? I was thinking a thunderbolt to expresscard adapter and I thought in the past I saw there was an expresscard for it but now I can’t find it anywhere.
    Thanks!

    ATTO ThunderLink SH 1068 but it doesn’t have RAID, so a TB-to-PCIe box might still be the best option.

    Sonnet “Echo” should do the job.
    Its TB to PCIe

    [Rainer Wirth] “Sonnet “Echo” should do the job.”

    Won’t it end up costing more, with no support for daisy-chaining?

    I was looking into the sonnet echo but didnt see an express card to use with it for mini sas. Do you know of one? Thanks

    It should be Sonnet Express SE, and then you’ll put in the ATTO R680 you probably already have as it’s usually bundled with eS Pro.
