Re: [SM] UMAX S900 SOnnet G3 and OS X

It depends on the card. If the card is seen as "SCSI' the 8MB limitation 
won't apply. Other cards, like the VST are seen as IDE and the 
limitation does apply. Even from one vendor like Sonnet you may have 
some cards of each type, depending on who they contracted to make 
them.Paul C

 An S900 would have the limitations of

the confusion.

My dim memory seems to tell me that the ATA133 cards cause the S900 to 
see the ATA drives as SCSI so the limitations of the Apple IDE 
machines do not apply.
Some one please correct me if I am wrong.
