Review: Worked for me - I used this in conjunction with two dual bay Startech docks Startech eSATA USB to SATA Hard Drive Docking Station for Dual 2.5 or 3.5-Inch HDD USB 2.0 External Hard Drive Enclosure SATADOCK22UE to externalize some of my SATA drives. Note that newer desktops (eg. HP Pavillion Elite series) no longer have orb set screws, and rely heavily on motherboard connectors to stabilize the orbs on the backplane, and thus it may be difficult to securely anchor an adapter like this one. I had to tweak mine and wedge it in between some shielding on the backplane. Otherwise, you run the risk of pushing the adpapter onto the mobo (and possibly shorting out somethig) when you are attaching the cables. This problem is not the fault of the manufacturer. Once securely attached, the adapter worked with no problems. Used with the docks, I can test and configure raid arrays, backup and clone drives, etc. without having to open my system, and with great performance. The system doesn't know or care whether these drives are internal or external.
Review: Internal to External eSATA 4 Port PCI Bracket - This product and it's matching adapter along with 8 standard 18 inch SATA cables (4 to connect the bracket to 4 available SATA ports on the motherboard in the PC and 4 to connect the adapter to the 4 SATA6 hard drives in the SATA RAID Silo.) solved a need I had to retrofit an older 4 hard drive SCSI RAID Silo to a 4 hard drive SATA6 RAID Silo and this solution allowed me to come out of my PC as eSATA via 4 standard 6 foot eSATA cables and connect to my newly created eSATA6 RAID 0 Silo. There's no electronics in the bracket or the adapter to auto-negotiate or slow the data rates down which is good so this bracket and the adapter and standard eSATA cables will pass SATA/SATA1/SATA1.5 = 150 Mb/sec or SATA2 = 300 Mb/sec or SATA3/6 = 6 Gb/sec - all with no problem. I also bought 2 dual Y adapters to convert the older Molex hard drive power connectors in the SATA RAID Silo to SATA hard drive power connectors from Radio Shack. The job looks like a professional or factory installation. The seller was very responsive and helpful when I discovered I ordered two of these brackets but I really needed one bracket for the PC and the matching adapter for the RAID Silo. They did the exchange and did not charge me shipping charges the second time to send me the adapter and were very nice about everything. Retrofit costs: Older 4 hard drive SCSI RAID Silo on Craig's List $15.00, Internal to External eSATA 4 Port PCI Bracket and matching Internal to External eSATA 4 port Adapter with shipping $44.95, 8 standard 18 inch SATA cables with shipping $10.80, 4 standard 6 foot eSATA cables with shipping $23.99 and 2 Molex to SATA dual Y power adapters $12.99 Total: $107.73 - Not bad! Now the cost of the four WD Caviar Black, 750 GB, SATA6, 64 MB Cache, 7,200 RPM hard drives inside the SATA6 RAID 0 Silo is a totally different story. Fortunately I got mine before the Thailand floods. :-)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ eSata ports are wonderful as Boot and Alt-Boot drives in PC's.
*by R***O on September 1, 2019*

I've been using these eSata ports to connect my Boot and Alt-Boot drives to PC's. It's convenient to swap to a "recent" working copy of a boot drive instead of risking it all when Windows OS problem occurs.
