1 Into the Future with Portable AT March 2, 2007 Overview of Expansion Chassis Technology

2 Into the Future with Portable AT March 2, 2007  Functional and Versatile Connect to a notebook or desktop to increase computer functionality and user portability. Enable users to utilize a single processor for multiple computing devices.  Enhanced Performance Used for high-performance applications that require additional hardware in the form of PCI Express or PCI cards.  Reliable and Cost Effective Proven products with a solid engineering design and broad market acceptance that lower the total cost of ownership and are supported by excellent customer service. Superior End User Value of Mobility Expansion Products

3  Technology Patented technology that provides a method for extending the PCI bus outside the computer’s motherboard to another location. Theoretically, a single PCI slot can support up 255 slots through Magma PCI expansion.  System Additional PCI slots are provided in a separate enclosure and connected to the host computer through an interface card and cable.  Solution Provide a scalable solution for increasing PCI functionality without requiring purchase of new computer. PCI configuration can grow as needed. Expansion Technology Connect Cable   Insert Magma PCMCIA card into your laptop. 

5  Expansion Technology Trends Computer Systems have fewer expansion slots than systems of a few years ago Graphics requirements of required applications may exceed the graphics capabilities of a user’s laptop Cards for specialized applications typically will require an expansion slot Migration from PCI to PCI Express Expansion Technology Into the Future with Portable AT March 2, 2007

6  Example Requirements for Expansion Chassis Multiple Monitor Support  Laptop users may wants to connect three displays simultaneously High End Graphics Requirements  User’s applications require a graphics card beyond the capability of the laptop’s installed graphics card Speciality Cards  Connectivity to external devices Expansion Technology Into the Future with Portable AT March 2, 2007
