Add Extra Storage
Is your computer's hard drive running out of storage space? Does the idea of opening your computer to upgrade it scare you? It's easier than you think! With the Tempo HD from Sonnet Technologies, you can add more storage in an instant. Just attach a 2.5" parallel ATA drive, insert it into any PCI slot, and your installation is complete—it's that simple. Finally, you'll have the room you need without the installation hassles. Adding a hard drive has never been this easy!

Tempo HD enables you to put that old (or new) 2.5" notebook drive back to work. And you can connect two 3.5" parallel ATA drives to the additional ATA/133 port to expand your storage capacity.
