PCI Express is the new standard that will replace PCI. The new PCI Express interface effectively quadruples the amount of available computing bandwidth, resulting in faster music downloads, smoother streaming video, and lightning-fast access to mass-storage devices. The Belkin FireWire 3-Port PCI Express Card offers the perfect solution for users who want to add FireWire ports to their computers. The Card is designed to take advantage of the additional bandwidth and features provided by the new PCI Express I/O interconnection standard. Now you can download multiple large files and transfer documents to your hard drive all at the same time-without worrying that your computer will freeze, crash, or slow down to a trickle.
