Sonnet Technologies today announced the Sonnet M.2 2x4 Low-Profile PCIe Card, the latest offering in the company's popular family of high-performance storage adapter cards that enable the installation of multiple SSDs into a computer's or Thunderbolt expansion system's PCIe card slot. The low-profile, half-length PCIe 3.0 card features two M-keyed NVMe M.2 SSD slots that support the installation of M.2 form factor NVMe PCIe SSDs. Here's what they are saying: What It Does: The Sonnet M.2 2x4 Low-Profile PCIe Card enables users to mount two M.2 NVMe 2280 PCIe SSDs (sold separately) into almost any expansion card space with an available x8 or x16 PCIe card slot; using today's highest-capacity SSDs, up to 16TB of storage capacity may be installed. RAID 0, RAID 1, and JBOD configurations are supported, providing users with flexibility in configuring the SSDs for best performance or data safety, or both. Why It's Important: For users who need to add internal storage to their computer and require ultra-high-speed data transfer speeds for a smooth workflow — such as video editors working with 6K and greater resolution footage — an NVMe M.2 SSD-based upgrade is ideal. Many computers do not include slots to support installing M.2 SSDs directly but do include PCIe expansion card slots. With Sonnet's M.2 2x4 Low-Profile PCIe Card installed, a user can mount two SSDs in a single PCIe slot — with no cables, adapters, or mounting trays required — for instant-access media storage or as a high-performance scratch disk. For users whose computers lack PCIe card slots — such as notebooks, mini, and all-in-one desktops — but include Thunderbolt ports, installing the Sonnet card into one of Sonnet's multi-slot Echo Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion systems connects the M.2 2x4 card's dual SSD slots through a single cable. How It's Distinctive: Compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux operating systems, The Sonnet M.2 2x4 Low-Profile PCIe Card requires only a low-profile card space and includes both full-height and low-profile PCIe brackets — so it is ideal for use in most any desktop tower, mini workstation or server computer, or Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion system with an available x8 or x16 PCIe slot. Because the Sonnet card employs a high-performance 16-lane PCIe 3.0 bridge chip, it doesn't require specific SSDs or a particular motherboard to operate, nor PCIe bifurcation to support RAID features. Installed in a computer's PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 card slot, the Sonnet card supports outstanding storage performance — a single SSD installed on the card can deliver data transfers up to 3,400 MB/s — with two SSDs installed and configured as a RAID 0 set, sustained transfers up to 6,600 MB/s are supported. To support their sustained high performance, the card's integrated heatsink silently cools SSDs to eliminate the need for them to "thermal throttle" — an SSD protection feature that prevents overheating by choking performance until they cool down. When You Can Get It: The Sonnet M.2 2x4 Low-Profile PCIe Card (part number FUS-SSD-2x4-E3S) will be available the last week of June from Sonnet and soon after from channel partners worldwide at the suggested retail price of $199.99. https://www.sonnettech.com/product/m2-2x4-ssd-low-profile-pcie-card/overview.html

We now use iLok ­ Today we introduce iLok support for the following products: Chameleon DeRoom Pro VoiceGate SpectralBalance All future purchases will receive an iLok activation code and the newest installers on the product pages will install iLok protected plugins. If you already own licenses you can convert them to iLok. Do I need a physical iLok dongle? No, you don’t. For our iLok protected products you just need a free iLok account and to install the free iLok License Manager. You can then activate the product either to a physical iLok, to your iLok Cloud or directly to a machine. More info on how to use iLok here. I own serial key licenses of your now iLok protected products. Will they continue to work? The serial keys will continue to work as before. However, newer versions of the products (Chameleon, DeRoomPro, SpectralBalance, VoiceGate) will require using iLok. If you decide not to use iLok, after logging in you can see the installers to prior serial key protected versions on the very bottom of each product page. How can I convert my licenses? We recommend converting your licenses to iLok which is free of charge until 31th December 2022. After logging in to your account you will see a button to convert the licenses in the User Area. Note, that the conversion process cannot be reverted. We also changed our login system - you might have to sign up again. If you use the same e-mail address as before your serials should appear automatically in your new account. By the way: There will be a major update for Chameleon very soon. Stay tuned! https://www.accentize.com/userarea/

Thanx Toffo! I don't know if I deserve it or not..but I've been pushing this one for far too long, so thought it was time to do it. I really didn't want to spend the money on a PC, but I probably would have spent it on software that would just gather virtual dust, so might as well give the dust a new place to live first! LOL!
