Summary: CalDigit does provide PCIx card (eLane-1x) to support PCIx based machines, for example, G4, G5 or HP xw8400.

Products Affected:   HDPro & HDPro2, HDOne

Yes, you can use HDPro and HDOne with PCI-X based G4s, G5s and PCI-X Windows machines. Due to the limited bandwidth of the PCI-X slots, there will be slightly slower performance. Results will vary on different machines, however we guarantee up to 10 bit uncompressed HD 4:2:2 workflow and multiple streams of ProRes, DVCProHD 1080i.
