Looking for a solution to the excessively long USB transfer times between my express 34 cards system (EX-1r) and my Mac Pro.
I think the way to go would be to purchase an express card and install it in one of the available slots. That's half the solution. However, I can't find a hardware solution to connect the express cards to the computer. Anyone know of a "little box" with a esata type cable to connect me up? Mac Pro dual quad core Intel Xeon OS 10.6.5 3 internal hard drives 6 gigs of RAM
[www.synchrotech.com] gets you Express34 in your Mac if you have an available slot.
I couldn't find a FW800 to Express card reader either, which would be a more flexible solution for your Mac Pro and if you had a laptop that didn't have the Express34 slot. ak Sleeplings, AWAKE!

I'm under the impression that it isn't possible, as express card 34 is a lot faster than FireWire, but there is a USB to P2 card reader.... www.strypesinpost.com
Synchrotech does not support hot swap of Express cards.

You would have to reboot each time you change cards so that my negate any speed advantage. The only viable solutions are Sony's Express card to USB connections or Qio's very expensive card reader which does connect through PCIe. [www.sonnettech.com]
