Re: sata 2.5 plugged into a 3.5 sata enclosure?
Howdy, As Peter said, the connectors for 2.5 and 3.5 SATA drives are the same. But, the power draw is almost always a lot more on the 3.5 drives. A single USB port can supply 2.5 watts(.5 amps at 5V). For example, a Seagate 3.5 ST3500320AS 500 GB takes .65 amps at 5V and .42 ams at 12V. USB does not supply 12V at all. 2.5 drives are almost always 5V only and take around 2.5 watts(I've seen up to 5 watts). So, a 2.5 drive may work and a 3.5 almost never will. Some higher power 2.5 drives need power from 2 USB ports. I have burned out a USB port from drawing too much power. Good luck, Ralph On Mon, 2009-06-22 at 19:55 -0400, John Martz wrote: If the 2.5 drive works with USB, then I would think there is no problem with USB.

Re: 9150/120 Monitor Dark + Network
Howdy, I don't know anything about the first problem. Networking the computers should be possible. The 9150 only comes with an Apple AAUI connector for a network, by default. There were Nubus cards to supply CAT5(CAT3, really or 10 base T, if you prefer). I found someone selling them at http://www.welovemacs.com/m0417lla.html for $30. I don't know the seller, and I remember someone offering a Nubus ethernet card on the swap list recently, so check those options. The 8600 and 9600 come with ethernet connectors. So, a little cabling and a switch and you should be OK. Ideally, you would hook your ATT modem to a router and that would then talk to your other machines. There are several good reasons for this. I know I used OS 8.6 on a Beige G3 through a router like this, but I don't remember much about configuring OS8 and OS9 network stacks. Others here can help with that, I think.

But, the power draw is almost always a lot more on the 3.5 drives. A single USB port can supply 2.5 watts(.5 amps at 5V). My understanding when I read Jeff's note was that his enclosure was powered from an external 5v 12v AC-DC power supply, not from the USB port. What was confusing to me about Jeff's situation is that apparently the 2.5 drive worked with USB (and I assumed also with eSATA ... though he may not have checked this). However, when he put the 3.5 drive into the enclosure it did not work with USB but it *did* work via eSATA. If it was strictly an enclosure power supply issue then I would expect the 3.5 drive to never work in the enclosure. Or USB to not work for either drive. I can't come up with a good rational for why the 3.5 drive would work with eSATA but *not* work with USB, other than possibly the 3.5 drive exceeded some GB capacity limit of the SATA-USB adapter/converter??

My machine won't even see it as a drive, is there some way of getting this thing to work? Ben Mon, 31 Dec 2007 20:30:42 + Ha. Good luck. I've got a PC (running WinXP) and can't even get it to work on that.

Re: Digital Camera

Any ideas? We went through this once before back in 2007. These are the Crayola/ Disney kids cameras and don't seem to have Mac drivers. Since the cameras have no removable memory card, there isn't an easy solution. Macam has recently added support for some webcams by the same manufacturer Sakar, but I don't think these are digital still cameras, but rather webcams. Still, installing Macam 0.9.2 couldn't hurt, and adds functionality to your Mac, so I'd go ahead and install Macam 0.9.2 and see what happens, but I don't think it will help? Macam 0.9.2: http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/downloads.html Also, if you look in System ProfilerUSB what device ID # and vendor ID # does it show? (I think the vendor ID # should be 10026 decimal or 0x2770 hex, but don't know the device ID?) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
