You would need an Echo III, which supports the full-length HDX card and works with the M1 Macs. **Q: Will this work with older server class sas/sata raid cards - specifically lsilogic sas9260 or other cards from that generation?** A: You would have to ask the card maker whether their driver is Thunderbolt compatible, which usually means that the driver needs to gracefully handle hot plug/unplug. Drivers that cannot handle hot plug/unplug may still work if you plug/unplug the Thunderbolt chassis from the computer only when the computer is shut down. **Q: Will this work on a Dell PC?** A: Thunderbolt drivers are provided by Intel, so yes, it should work ## Frequently Bought Together - Sonnet Echo Express SEIIIe Thunderbolt 3 Edition (3-Slot PCIe Card Expansion Chassis) - Blackmagic Design DeckLink Duo 2 4ch SDI Playback and Capture Card BMD-BDLKDUO2 - Sonnet Presto Solo 10GBASE-T Ethernet 1-Port PCIe Card [Thunderbolt Compatible] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/322436148-sonnet-technologies-echo-express-se-iiie-thunderbolt-three-slot-pcie](https://www.desertcart.it/products/322436148-sonnet-technologies-echo-express-se-iiie-thunderbolt-three-slot-pcie) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
