Re: [Mactel-linux-users] looking for an expresscard/34 esata card

Geoffrey,

I can't speak for Linux, but you can be sure that any product
Wiebetech sells has robust support for Mac OS X.  James Wiebe has been
on the Mac since the very beginning.

Tell them Mike Crawford sent you - I used to write custom firmware for
their DriveDocks.

To figure out whether a card will work on Linux, ask Wiebetech what
the controller chip is in their card, then consult the Linux SATA
page:

http://linux-ata.org/driver-status.html

I've heard that too about SIIG - that they're Windows-only.  I'm very
surprised they don't support other platforms, as they have a wide
array of I/O products.  Surely they must have the resources to hire
Mac and Linux driver developers.

Mike
