I have a 29160 running in my PTP and I had a 39160 as well a while back (had to move it elsewhere but plan to grab another soon). Both do just fine in OS X despite lack of support for a few things. Domain validation is the most likely one to be trouble (domain validation basically slows the bus down if it gets errors at the default speeds; performance goes down but things still work). Good cabling makes the lack of domain validation a non-issue.

The whole PowerDomain series are Mac Cards - I have a 29160 (the single channel version of the 39160) and it's fine in my PowerCenter Pro, B&W Rev.1 and Quicksilver, so I've got no idea, but there is a firmware update for it you might want to try here: http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/support/driverdetail.jsp? sess=no&language=English+US&cat=/Product/APD -39160&filekey=39160_v12_flash_util.hqx It says not fully OS X compatible, as it did on the info page for 1.2 on the 29160, but to be quite honest, it works fine under 10.2-10.4 for me :) If you need OS X support, you can always flash back to 1.02

I have 9600 with Sonnet G3/400 MacOS 9.2.2.
Recently bought Adaptec 39160 on ebay but it isn't seen by PowerDomain or SCSIProbe.
Any ideas?

According to Adaptec's web-site, it is not Mac-friendly... Windoze, Solaris, etc.

YMMV,
Pete
