USB 3.0 express card for Macbook Pro on Lion?

Does anybody know a USB 3.0 express card that works with Macbook Pro using Lion?


I just got an IOGear express card from Amazon that did NOT make it clear that it was Windows only.

Only after I tried to install it was it painfully obvious it was Windows only.


Thanks

Mac Book Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

I have just installed the startech ecusb3s1 USB 3 expresscard attached to a 1TB CORE Ext HDD on my 17" 2011 MBP with Lion using a modified kext available for download here :http://cartri.net/blog/810#comment-15389, and installed with kext wizard, as startech do not provide Mac os drivers for this device and very short sightedly dont look like they are going to either, however it now works fine.
