    Boot the Unbootable: Sonnet SSD Pro RAID0 SATA Leopard

    I've been following along with a few of these types of threads concerning booting / compatible PowerPC SATA (SIL-)controller cards. I came across this TSATA6-SSDPR-E2 from Sonnet and decided to test it in my Dual G5. Without further ado – there is a way to make it work as a super-fast RAID0...

    Three 4k monitors on Sonnet Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 Dock w/ M1 Max?

    Sonnet's own compatibility matrix suggests that using three 4k monitors via their dock is possible (with the caveat that you apparently need to use their Thunderbolt 3 to Dual DisplayPort Adapter). Theoretically that should be possible since 4k60 uses ~12Gbps bandwidth, and hence 36gbps total...

    Upgrading Sonnet eGFX Breakaway Box Enclosure Power Supply (350w -> 550w) + Vega 56

    Just wanted to share (and hopefully this shows up in Google because I was looking for this topic for a while until I decided to finally make a video) - upgrading the Sonnet eGFX Breakaway Box power supply works. Went from 350watts + RX 580 to an Enermax 550 watt (sfx) PSU + Vega 56.

    Which eGPU: Sonnet550W, HP Omen or RazerCoreX?

    Bulk of the latter doesn't matter to me. Sonnet's led letter s looks nice, but the box will be out of sight. How does these PSU's compare to each other? CoreX has Lite-on PS-86512. What kind of fan it has? And what kind of PSU Sonnet550W has? Any other factors between these?
