g4 dual compatability with lacie d2 sata

Post by scottchristy »

I am considering getting the new lacie d2 sata hard drive and it comes with a pci card for mac. I was reading about setting 2 of them up in a raid configuration. Does anybody know of any compatability problems I might encounter with my dual g4? Or should I be ok.

I just installed an ACARD AEC-6290M and (2) Hitachi HIT13G0252 80GB SATA drives in RAID 0 configuration using OS 10.2.8's built in RAID software on a 466MHz Digital Audio G4. So far so good. I don't see any reason why you will have any issues, other than possible bus master issues with high performance audio cards. Though that issue is not very common any more.
