Sorry I can't help you on other issues. I can and will say that I believe the above info regarding the XLR8 upgrade card and the TEMPO ATA 100 card to be false. Yet another in the long list of strange less then true replies from Sonnet Tech people. I'd like to see what other Sonnet 100 card users who have XLR8 upgrades have to say about this.
I've had some interesting experiences with my Sonnet Tempo HD ATA card in a PM8600 but with Sonnet G4-800. In order to boot from it, I have to not have a system folder on any of the SCSI drives. Apparently the Tempo HD spins up too slowly, so any other drive takes precedence. This cold explain the hot boot vs cold boot problem with XRL8 card. Booting with apple-option-shift-delete also allowed Tempo to boot.
This slow booting also caused problems with trying to install OSX on to the Tempo HD. I had to swap with a Beige G3.
