The extender cable will work in any Mac Pro, but it uses the optical drive SATA ports. On early (before 2009) Mac Pros, both ports are free since the optical drives were PATA. Newer Mac Pros use SATA optical drives. So only one port is available for external SATA drives if you have one optical drive. This card works with my MacPro mid 2010 6 core, running MacOS sierra 10.12.4 beta3, one big advantage over other eSata cards is that I can boot from my eSata docking station, my previous card would not do this. But you cannot boot from the USB 3. Although the price is a bit high it was worth it for me as I dont need two cards in the machine.
