Re: SCSI utilities for OS X

[Greg & Rachel Olson]

Okay, you forgot to mention a couple things.  You are running osX.??? 
on PTP G3 with XpostFacto?  What version of toast is your 'old' 
toast?  AFAIK, if your external scsi drives are working, your burner 
should as well (in9).  Most X apps do not even attempt to locate scsi 
devices.  The X version of Toast will usually not find it either. 
Try Dragon Burn for X ( http://www.ntius.com ).  I have a B&W G3-300 
with an Advansys SCSI card (from an old umax scanner, works in a pc 
as well, asc3030 chipset) and Neither TOAST nor DRAGON will find any 
scsi devices to burn to when I hook up an external scsi burner. 
However, I have Toast 6 on an old 7500 g4-700 with X.3.6 with an 
internal SCSI Yamaha 8x4x16 cdrw drive and it burns fine.  Back in 
the days of nine, you would just power up a drive when you needed it 
and use a scsi utility to mount the drive if necessary and it worked 
fine.  NOT in X.  If your drive is not powered on before you boot the 
machine, you will need to reboot with the power on for it to be 
recognized.  Try that option:  is your external scsi powered up 
before you boot the machine in X?

For your other question about ATA133 card and a DVD drive, YES.  X 
version of toast or dragon will burn to it no problem.  'Disk 
utility' backup will work fine as well.

You could also try the apple SCSI dev list 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] for any scsi utilities.

Hi all
So, are there any SCSI utilities available for OS X?  Is there any 
way for me to tell the OS to see it as one LUN?  Or do I have to buy 
the OS X version of Toast?

Thanks again for answering all my questions!
