Sonnet Tempo SSD interface cards/adapter Internal SATA

Simple SSD Upgrade SolutionsIf you ve been thinking about fast, bootable storage, you ve read the stories and seen the reviews; SSDs are hot right now. Not only do they offer tremendous performance and easily outperform hard disk drives, they are more reliable, their prices are dropping and you can get more capacity than ever. If you ve got a Mac Pro® or older Windows® desktop computer, you could just get a couple of 2.5 SSDs (plus necessary adapters) and install them in some empty drive bays (if there are any) and be done with it but the 3Gb/s SATA interface in your computer won t support fast 6Gb/s SSDs at full speed. You could also get a 6Gb/s eSATA adapter plus external mount SSD storage, but they come with the excess baggage of power adapters and cable clutter. Sonnet engineered a great alternative Tempo SSD. It's a fast 6Gb/s SATA PCI Express adapter card that enables you to attach readily available 2.5" SSDs and install the assembly neatly into a single PCIe slot, no cables or drivers necessary.Unlike other PCI Express SSD cards that rely on proprietary, premium priced SSD modules, Tempo SSD uses standard 2.5" SATA drives that you choose. You get to select from the widest variety of SSDs, and buy the ones that best suit your capacity and performance needs while working within your budget. Because 2.5" SSDs are readily available, you re not tied to one retailer or SSD manufacturer should you decide to upgrade to higher capacity, faster SSDs.
