Has anyone tried 1 terabyte drives with Apple G5 PCI RAID card 1M9699g?

I am planning on setting up RAID 5 on one of my PPC G5 Xservers with an Apple PCI RAID card and 3 Hitachi 1 terabyte HDs. At $180 a drive and a $300 or so for a card this seems like a good setup. Has anyone tried this or have any suggestions.

It worked, for about $860 I now have a 1.8 TB xServer

    Has anyone else had problems with apple itunes debiting your account unauthorized!

    I have also experienced this. I've downloaded the 'No Surprises' ringtone by Radiohead three times and every time I get charged for the ringtone by iTunes and every time it disappears after a while. This is really strange... I haven't talked to anyone at Apple about this, but I checked these forums out just now and, it seems, I'm not the only one with this problem.
    I'm using my brand new iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 8.1.1 and I'm thinking it's a software-related problem too...

  • Jdev ADF -- Has anyone tried a workspace with 30 - 40 tables?

    Hi,
    Since we found out that trying to access from one workspace to another is not going to be easily implemented in Jdev, we have to put all the tables and JSPs in one workspace. we will need to create a workspace with 30 - 40 tables and 50 - 60 JSPs. Does anyone have any experience with it? Or anyone has any idea if it is possible. Is the performance going to be acceptable? Any idea is deeply appreciated.
    Regards,
    Annie

    Annie,
    We have workspaces with this number of tables (slightly more, I believe), and more than that number of JSPx's
    No problems with performance at all. It's quite acceptable.

  • Has anyone tried BCC 8 with 10.1?

    I have and it froze up the whole computer. Had to hit the physical reset button. BCC 8 has always been cranky with FCP 10, but I was hoping the new architecture might have helped with it. Is anybody having any luck using BCC 8 and FCP 10.1?

    I'm having no problems using BCC 8 with FCP 10.1
    Tried no less than 9 effects and they all seem to be working, although pretty slowly on my 2009 8 core MP.

  • Has anyone tried the iSight with Skyp for MAC?

    MacPro 2.66   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2G ram.. iSight camera

    I use it with a Powerbook G4...so G3 might not be enough...here are the system requirements as listed on Skype's web site:
    * Mac computer with G4 800 Mhz processor or faster
    * Mac OS X v10.3.9 Panther or newer
    * 512 MB RAM
    * 40 MB free disk space on your hard drive
    * Microphone
    * Webcam: Suggested webcams include Apple iSight, Philips SPC900NC, or Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000. Drivers for the Philips and Logitech webcams can be downloaded from http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/.
    * Internet connection (broadband is best, GPRS is not supported for voice calls, and results may vary on a satellite connection).

  • Has anyone tried to use the Intel 750 PCIe AIC in a Z640 Workstation

    I am really only interested in using this as a second disc , not the main OS Boot disk; as I have heard there could be a problem having the right NVMe Bios or UEFI .
    I was advised by a reseller not to do this as HP tested recommended discs for heat generation and airflow. But that seemed strange, as one can have 2 Nvidia K2200s in the chassis and they each max at 68 watts, and each PCIe slot has a max limit of 75 watts. So surely using the Intel 750 which has a max power consumption of 24 watts should generate a lot less heat?
    That assumes my mikey mouse knowledge of physics is watt equate to heat generation or are SSDs different?
    I could understand it if the Intels were say 68 watts - i.e. It could then be down to cooling airflow. Or is the intelligent cooling system advised of known components and therefore reacts differently i.e. Maybe boosts the fan speed or something.
    Hence would love to hear from anyone who has actually done it - how did it work out? Or someone who really understand these boxes at a deep technical level, who could rationalise why this is not a good thing ........ Other than the HP reseller doesnt sell the Intel 750s but does sell the overpriced, relatively speaking underperforming Z Turbo drives.

    I have not done this but did look after Macs in a class room enviroment. I think your concerns are valid, you may be making a difficult situtation worse.
    If no one come back with a definite answer, you could try a small number as a pilot, and keep them on machines next to each other. That may give you a better understanding of any likey problems.
    What are the the problems with the wired headphones, cable breaks? If so woud headsets with detachable cables be an easier answer?

  • Apple should really come up with a dual sim card. Has anyone tried to use the dusl simcard adaptor?

    I see many ads for the dual sim adaptor, also it is being sold on some flights. Has anyone tried one? Instead of putting better cameras on their iPhones, Apple should really concentrate on making a phone with dual sim cards ( without asking exhorbitant prices) which will make travelling so much easier.

  • Has anyone tried to sync photos with the cable to itunes rather than how it should work via Wifi with iCloud?  The info on the Apple support page says that you should backup to both iTunes & iCloud, but 2x the Genius Bar told me not to.  Help please!

    Has anyone tried syncing their photos to iTunes with the cable in addition to how it should work via wi-fi on iCloud?  On the Apple support info page, it says you should do both types oof backup. The Genius Bar told me 2x not to do both.  What experiences has the community had?  I'm also having syncing issues with photos most recently as well as contact updates.  (I have an iPhone 4S with the iOS7.1)  Thanks much!

    It sounds like you are mixing up several different things (or not using the terminology that Apple uses).
    One thing is backup. You can backup via icloud or via iTunes and there is no reason you cannot do both -- I do and the second link below from Apple gives instructions. Doing a backup will include photos from the Camera Roll in the backup but you will not be able to see the results -- all of the backup data will be stored on iCloud or on your computer in files that are not designed to be accessed by you for any purpose other than restoring to your phone in the event of a problem. More information on backup:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
    If you simply want to transfer photos from an iPhone to a computer, the terminology Apple uses for that is "import" and it is done without iTunes. New photos (taken after you change the setting) can be done via PhotoStream which is a cloud based option. The other option is via cable. Instructions for both: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
    Syncing via iTunes (with regard to photos) is used to transfer photos the other direction -- from the computer to the phone. Instructions for that http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • Has anyone else experienced problems with the disc burner/driver software not being found?

    I am trying to burn music onto a disc and it is telling me that the disc burner/driver software has not been found. Has anyone else experienced this with their MacBook Pro?

    SuperDrives wear out - it seems that yours might be on the verge of a mechanical failure. I'd just replace it, buying a new drive from Other World Computing and installing it yourself (because Apple would charge a small fortune).

  • Final Cut Pro X and Macbook with 9400M chip. Has anyone tried it?

    I have a late 2009 Macbook with Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics chip. I've got 4 gig RAM installed. Apple lists this chip as working with Final Cut Pro X. Has anyone tried it on a Macbook? Is the performance adequate or should I wait until I get a more powerful laptop?

    Yep, I've got a Macbook with that chipset and it runs FCPX. It's not blindingly quick but it work.

  • Have 1 POP3 email account I want to work like IMAP email in icloud. Apple suggested created a new Apple ID just for POP3. Has anyone tried this to see if it works and will delete across multiple devises?

    Have 1 POP3 email account I want to work like IMAP email in icloud (keeps my iMac, iPhone, ipad mail in sync). Apple suggested trying creating a new Apple ID just for that POP3 email. Has anyone tried this to see if it works and will delete/update across multiple devises? Would mean keeping up with two Apple ID accounts but only other alternative I know of is paying for monthly service for Microsoft 365.

    would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
    Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
    I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
    MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
    I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
    Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them.

    I'm looking at buying a new computer.  Has anyone had any problems with fusion drive on iMac?  If so, what kind of problems, and were they easily corrected?

    NOPE!

  • Has anyone tried a Western Digital SATA RAID hard drive on a non-RAID controler?

    Because of a compatability problem, I want to try a different brand of SATA II drive on my non-RAID motherboard. The WD RAID drives have great specs but I don't know if they will work. WD says they are ONLY for RAID and not to put them on a non-RAID board. My theory is that they will be more reliable over the long term because they are a heavier duty drive. 
    Has anyone tried this and if so, what were the results?

    I think there was some confusion about what I am asking. It is definately not a duplication of my other post and some of the information in that other post is incorrect because I JUST found out that my motherboard controller IS a RAID controller even though I am not using it as one. I will correct that when I am finished with this post.
    The other post was about a specific model of Maxtor drive that doesn't work on my motherboard. This post is about Western Digital. The only reason that I even mentioned the word RAID in my previous post is that there is a known compatibility problem with RAID controllers and that drive. I wanted to emphasize that my problem was not the one of that known compatibility problem, but because it is a RAID controller, it might be that problem.
    When you use the motherboard's controller as a non-RAID controller, you do format the drives individually, not as a RAID. I know that because I did it that way, not realizing I even had the option of using RAID on this board. That works fine on one model of Maxtor hard drive and does not work at all on the other model of Maxtor hard drive.
    What I want to know now is: Will the Western Digital RAID drives will work on a non-RAID controller. The controllers on my add-in card is not RAID. Also, will that drive work on my motherboard's controller even though it is not being used as RAID.
    Here is a link to the WD site's description of one such drive. There are several other WD RAID drives, this is just one example...  http://www.wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=238&Language=en It does not state whether or not they will work well in a non-RAID environment.

  • Has anyone tried to extend Spatial with a 3D primitive?

    Has anyone tried to extend Spatial with a 3D primitive that for example can model buildings and tunnels? I am trying to add the polyhedron primitive next to the existing point, line, polygon model. I just want to hear some tips or ideas...

    The plan is to make a new GType and new stored functions that recognize this GType.
    A polyhedron could be of type 3008,3D and 8=polyhedron(=new). The elem_info
    and ordinates contain multiple planes. Self-created stored functions would be
    able to recognize this GType, e.g. area3D should give the sum of the areas of all the
    faces of the polyhedron and should also work on Gtype=3003 and give the real area
    of a 3D polygon instead of the projection.I wouldn't suggest this methodology if you are considering using any spatial indexing or
    functions with your data.
    There is a mechanism Oracle Spatial has for defining custom datatypes. It should only
    be used with custom apps, i.e. it won't be usable in the context of applications that know
    about Oracle Spatial data types.
    The mechanism allows you to define you own element using an element type of 0, and using
    the interpretation to define what you are looking at. You would also include an a supported
    element type that approximates your geometry, and that element is the one that is indexed,
    and the gtype entered is associated with that geometry. Your private functions could access
    the 3d geometry when required. For instance, you want to have a 3d cube. It might look like this:
    sdo_gtype=3002
    sdo_elem_info=(1,2,1, 7,0,1, 22,0,2 etc.
    sdo_ordinates=(0,0,0,2,2,2, 0,0,0,2,0,0,2,2,0,0,2,0,0,0,0, 2,0,0,2,0,2,2,2,2,2,2,0,2,0,0, etc
    the 1,2,1 in the elem info array corresponds to a 3d line string that when indexed with a minimum bounding
    volume encloses the 3d cube. The 0,0,0 and 2,2,2 in the ordinate array stored as the line string when indexed
    include the bounds of the cube. Next in the elem info array are 7,0,1. The 7 means offst 7 in the ordinate array
    and in this example is fixed. Next the 0 tells Oracle Spatial to ignore this element. The interpretation of 1 you define,
    the number could be anything. Since it is my example, I'll say the 1 means this is the definition of the first face in the
    x,y plane (i.e. the front face of the cube which faces me). I've set the ordinate array with the coordinates of that face.
    Next in elem info comes 22,0,2 which is starting at offset 22 there is another element that Oracle spatial should ignore
    (element type 0), and next comes 2, which might mean this is the second face definition, that I've defined as the right
    hand side y,z plane.
    etc.
    The meaning of the interpretation value is only limited by your imagination.
    Note while you can index three dimensions if you want, the only spatial functionality that supports 3d is a spatial
    index and a filter query, and some lrs functions. You will not be able to run any operator except for SDO_FILTER if you
    have a 3d index, and all spatial functions will only work on 2d.
    Do not define your own gtype and expect to use spatial. it will not work.

  • Has anyone tried DisKWarrior V4.2 with Snow Leopard V10.6.3?  Does it work?

    Has anyone tried DisKWarrior V4.2 with Snow Leopard V10.6.3? Does it work?

    Well, there is an article on MacWorld saying there were a lot of changes and improvements to Disk Utility.... and those have a way of impacting things.
    I got surprised to have trouble after 10.6.3 with SuperDuper on two different systems, that I am still scratching my head over, but had to use Carbon Copy Cloner and RESTORE in Disk Utility for now, would crash (sent report to both) as soon as SD began.
    TechTool Pro 5 is another that sometimes needs to take a couple weeks to see if they need an update and validate against the final shipped build.
