I use a Mac Pro at work and started with the built-in eSATA, then added a four-port card to handle additional drives. But on my little MacBook Pro the only way to use an eSATA external drive is through the ExpressCard port. And the new MBP's have dropped the ExpressCard port except for the 17" machine so that looks like the only option for those of us who need that level of connectivity. I'm sure this part of the market will continue to grow as more people get into editing video. Thanks, again, for your input - what's your system look like? -a- Thanks for the info and the link, Lance.
