## Long description

acutake MultiPanel ACUTAKE DarkMultiPanel 1 (ACU-DMP1) is a front multi-panel drive bay adapter for 5.25" positions that integrates multiple front interfaces into a single panel. It provides a card reader, multiple USB and eSATA/FireWire ports and audio I/O to occupy and organize one or more 5.25" drive bays in desktop PC cases, simplifying access to memory cards, external drives and front connectors without requiring internal reconfiguration.

The ACU-DMP1 combines an all-in-one card reader supporting a wide range of formats (SM Card, T-Flash, MS family, xD, CF variants and Micro Drive) with USB 2.0 hub functionality (three ports) and backward compatibility with USB 1.1. It also includes one 1394 (FireWire) port, an eSATA port for up to 3 Gbps transfer, and AC'97 / HD Audio input/output. The unit supports driverless operation for modern systems (driver required for Windows 98) and is compatible with common operating systems including Windows, macOS and Linux.

 Desktop PC builders who need a front-panel solution for multiple 5.25" bays
 Users who frequently transfer files from various memory cards and external drives
 Systems that require additional front USB, eSATA or FireWire ports and audio I/O

Connect the internal cables to the motherboard and power supply as required: USB header(s) for front USB ports, audio cable(s) for AC'97/HD audio, and any internal connector for card reader functionality. Connect external devices to the front USB, eSATA or FireWire ports and insert memory cards into the appropriate card slots. For Windows 98, install the supplied drivers; for most modern OS versions the unit is plug-and-play.
