Hi,
I have an Dell Optiplex 9020 SFF and I need to add an esata port to it so that my Addonics 4 HD Tower can connect.
I have an esata multiplier card in another standard size box which I could use, but I am not sure it will fit into the smaller 9020.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
Check the size of the card - if it's slim enough, you may simply need a low profile back bracket for it.
Or, something like this should fit
Just make sure the single PCIe slot on the system is open (there is only one slot).
Many thanks.
Well I inserted the card in the free small slot however the Dell doesn't see it when booted up. Nothing in Dev Mgr either.
Maybe I need to do something in bios? or a driver for the
Addonics ADSA3GPX1-2EM
It did work well in my Dell T7500
I am not sure why you would not install a driver for it.
Thanks but I can't seem to find the one.
This is the box I have.. http://www.addonics.com/products/mst.php

At the Addonics site there is a 3132b for Win but it is only – .inf,sys,dll and another sys file.
I don't see the esata card in Dev Mgr so can't install these.
I need something to make it be seen I guess.
