i kinda figured that but i have never heard or seen anything to prove that. it only makes since. if you use the esata out the back or on the top of a case if you have one. you have to use that different cable out the back or on the top to hook up the esata device.

but the 2 extra(purple) sata connectors are they run by the same controller as the reg sata plugins? is there any different voltages for them????
