I've installed a firewire card in my S900 as well as the UltraTek ATA Raid card with a 40Gb drive. I also purchased a firewire drive from belkin that I use a portable... At first I had a lot of problems. The firewire drive locked up everytime I tried to use it and the video recording w/iMovie didn't work. So, I read something about the E100 SCSI card and about someone removing it from their machine. I thought I'd try it out... I've totally removed my E100 card and it solved a lot of problems I was having. The firewire now works well. I still need to try the video though.
I have an ATI video card so I'm assuming that OSX 10.1 won't work. -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Kelley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 7:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: S900 Firewire Just for fun I installed OSX (10.02) on my then retired Umax S900 last Spring It ran well but was of little use because it only had a 2 gig hard drive and little ram. Now I'm the proud owner of a couple of Firewire hard drives, I'm looking for some feedback from the owners of other such machines and the use of Firewire in general as well as using firewire hard drives.
