Have searched high and low to no avail. I am trying to find an eSATAp (power-over-eSATA) add-on card for my computer that supports the SATA III 6Gbps spec. Specifically, it should support 12v. It needs to be either PCI-Express x1 or just a bracket that converts an internal signal. So far the closest thing I have found was a SATA II spec add-on card from China and produced over 4 years ago. Lots of eSATA cards but very few eSATAp versions. Thanks

This item from Delock claims it is a PCIe v2.0 card that provides 2 ports that each can be used for eSATA, eSATAp, USB2 or USB3.

Regarding the eSATAp use, it says it supports up to 6 Gb/s communication and Port Multiplier technology. Regarding eSATAp power, it specifes it provides 5 VDC, but does not claim 12 VDC.

Unfortunately, it appears from their website that they only have retail outlets selling their devices in Europe.

The other option I could see is this: Several places claim to sell adapter plates and cable systems that allow you to create a eSATA port at SATA 3.0 Gb/s (SATA II) speeds with both 5V and 12V power on the back of your desktop by connecting...

Now, IF you connect internally to a SATA 6.0 Gb/s port, maybe you can get what you seek?

I am thinking this may be the only thing I can do. 12V is a must but since the drive isn't a SSD I could probably get by with SATA II spec. Strange that it isn't more popular, since it eliminates the need for a drive dock.
