FYI: I recently bought a new Maxtor 300GB/16MB HD and installed in one of the two IceCube firewire enclosures I have, one is a FW400/USB 2.0 combo: http://www.macpower.com.tw/products/hdd3/icecube/ic_400plus, the other is a FW400 only: http://www.macpower.com.tw/products/hdd3/icecube/ic_400.
I first installed the HD in the combo FW400/USB 2.0 enclosure, but although it should have an Oxford 911 chipset it only saw 128GB. So I installed it in the FW400-only enclosure and this one saw the whole HD. So YMMV Does anyone have any experience with a Firewire Hub in a multi-user network? Since you cannot write to an NTFS formatted disk in Max OS X I formatted my external HD as a HFS+ disk so that I can use it on a Mac, and use MacDrive on a PC to be able to use that HD on a PC. If I were to get a Firewire Hub every user can connect to it as a network disk? @ Brian: which utility did you use to format your HD into one Mac and one PC partition? SpeedTools perhaps? And I guess you used FAT32 for the Windows partition? Regards, Marc * * -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
