Aloha I'd be willing to test this out but I'm not quite with it. I'd be using OSX on drive one, putting the second HD on the CD drive (and moving the CD drive down one slot)? If it enables me to access both drives I don't mind messing around like this, but only get half of what the plan is.
I've half a mind to just pay the extra $45 plus s/h to get the PCI card, but don't mind messing around to see if stuff works or not. As long as I know what I'm doing, naturally. j. -----Original Message----- From: G-List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of George Mogiljansky Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 12:15 PM To: G-List Subject: Re: Beige G3 2nd HDs Hello, Try OS X - it enables the master/slave on the CD-Rom bus (set the CD to master). Drawbacks - as reported on G-List - the bus is slow (16.7 MB/sec) compared to the IDE bus 0 (on the mob itself). I still don't see why we can't extract the code enabling this feature - unless it's OS X-only friendly. Plus, there is a flash Rom update for OS X for the VST card.
