I’m not following this thread closely, so perhaps this isn’t right, but some of the early G4’s lacked LBA48 support for larger HDs in firmware. There was a patch to enable LBA48 support for bigger drives, but I think this was for models prior to the DA? http://4thcode.blogspot.com/2007/12/using-128-gib-or-larger-ata-hard-drives.html -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
