Available from Kontron, the new ETX 3.0 specification for computers-on-modules (COMs) brings in 2x Serial ATA without changing any of the ETX pins, making new modules 100% pin compatible with previous versions and ensuring long-term support for the vast number of embedded application solutions based on these already highly integrated COMs including medical, gaming and entertainment, military and aerospace etc ETX 3.0 modules, such as the Kontron's ETX-LX, integrate 2x Serial ATA via two slimline connectors that are designed onto the top-side of the CPU module itself rather than requiring the ETX connectors of the module and carrier board to be redefined
