Installation

WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case or touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.

Shared eSATA Port

The eSATA port on this card is shared with internal SATA port 1 (SATA1). Only one will function at a time and must be selected using the DIP switch on the card. Do not change the DIP switch on the card while the computer is running.
