HDOne with laptop and ExpressCard

Thanks Jared. In an earlier post about the difference between the HDOne and the HDElement you wrote that the HDOne "does not offer the expiation that the CalDigit RAID Card and HDElement offer." What's "expiation?"

The HDElement looks terrific, and hits a much better price point for me, than the HDOne. But the inability to use it with a laptop is a problem. That's where the HDOne, with a CalDigit ExpressCard-equipped laptop, is very appealing. My only qualm is with the ExpressCard's physical stability in its slot. Whenever I use an ExpressCard to add a Firewire port to my 2008-era MacBook Pro, I have to take great care not to disconnect the ExpressCard accidentally; it is prone to ejecting itself a bit too easily for my comfort. Does your ExpressCard have any added security measures to keep it from disconnecting from the laptop? If the CalDigit ExpressCard came out while the RAID was being accessed, what would happen to the data and the RAID itself?

Thanks so much for your assistance.
