RAID 0 on Quicksilver

I have a plain vanilla Quicksilver, DP 800 MHz, right now has 2 80 GB ATA HDDs.
One of the drives it is failing on and off, with no pattern. These are old driver, like 8 years of so, that came with the box when I got it second hand.
I'm planning on replacing the drives with a new pair, and I wonder if I can -thru Disk Utility when re-installing- setup a RAID 0, spanning the 2 drives onto a huge 160 GB one (minus the format).
This will be done with Tiger and I don't haven any special adapter nor card, I wonder if it can be done using only Disk Utility; I know about the implications of using RAID 0 (one HDD dies, take the whole thing with it) but I can make backups to an external drive, and to a remote server with SSH + rsync.
Thanks a lot.

Hi hictio;
Rather then replacing the drives with 80 HDDs and the creating a RAID array, I would suggest that you simply get much larger HDDs that are now available to replace the old one. By going this way you avoid all of the problems with RAID. You can then have your system and applications on one drive and your project files on the other to share the workload between both drives.

Can I pull out a RAID drive and use in an external enclosure?

Hi everyone,
I have a Quicksilver with two identical drives formatted as a RAID setup (mirrored) and the G4 has reached its EOL (won't boot). Can I pull one of the RAID drives out and use in an external enclosure? Does the RAID formatting render it unusable in any other configuration? If that is the case, can I put the two drives into an external RAID enclosure?
Thanks in advance for any advice the community can supply!
Cheers,
James

Hi-
Can I pull one of the RAID drives out and use in an external enclosure?
Yes. Not as the original RAID setup, but as a drive, or part of a new RAID.
Does the RAID formatting render it unusable in any other configuration?
No. Just reformat the drive, and it's a regular drive, ready to go.
If that is the case, can I put the two drives into an external RAID enclosure?
A RAID set does not have to be internal. External RAID sets can be created, and successfully used.
Use firewire, or, if SATA, an eSATA connection to PCI controller.....
If the drive is, as you say, EOL, I would write zeros to the entire drive before reformatting.
Give Disk Utility a chance to map any bad sectors......

G4 Quicksilver as a file server

I'm planning to make my G4 Quicksilver 2x iGhz / 1 GB into a file server connected via ethernet to my other intel machines.
I have various SATA HDs that I plan to populate the G4 with interfacing to an OWC Firmtek SeriTek / 1V4 4 port 1.5 Gb/s eSATA PCI / PCI-x Host Adapter card. Then I intend to run the G4 headless using screen sharing vie ethernet to control the machine.
Questions:
1. Any experiences out there with that OWC card interfacing up to four internal SATA HDs? Is ther something else that might be better?
2. Will the power supply of the G4 be capable of handling power requirements for up to four HDs? I've seen various discussions here with G4/G5 PSU issues and want to make sure my configuration won't cause problems. Access to the HDs will be exclusively for reading data off one unit at a time to the external network with no HD to HD transfers internal to the machine or any writing of data to the HDs.
3. I'm planning to run a minimal version OS 10.5.8 on one of the HDs, no applications, etc. Should I use 10.5.8 or are there any benefits to running an earlier version of Tiger or Panther? I have install disks for all of them so no problem there.
4. Any issues with headless control of the G4?
5. Anything else I should be aware of?
Would appreciate any thoughts or advice on this.

Thanks for the info, BD. I hadn't thought about the heat issue, will have to watch that. Will the drives spin down if not accesed for a while?
I already have two OWC FW 800 SATA docks that I daisy chain for my working storage, video editing, photoshop, etc.
The G4 will be used as a data archive system and not for daily updates. So the price of the RAID unit and its capabilities are beyond my needs. I have duplicates of the disks I'll be puting in the G4 so backup should be okay.
I tried out the G4 with its current ATA/IDE drives, 10.5.8, and screen sharing from my iMac worked without a display connector attached to the G4 so that seems to be okay. It wasn't a full size screen but menu commands were functional.
Still would be interested hearing from anybody that has experience with the OWC Firmtek SATA card.

Raid card /drive gone NEED HELP

i have a raid card with one drive connected to it. i put a usb/firewire card in today and my computer would not start, so then i went back and uninstalled the card and then it started but my raid drive did not show just my non raid drives. i do not think my raid drive is geting power. any ideas?
bought raid card from owc (other world computing
raid drive does not show in system profiler
the usb/firewire card is from sonnet
this is g4 computer quicksilver 933mhz
ihave tried
1. reset pram
2. disk utility (scan for drives)
3. change scsi slot
4. run diskwarrior
5. ran terminal commands
please help

There is another area for pre-MDDs but...
The "RAID" card I assume is PATA controller, has firmware in the card to support RAID 0, 1, isn't really a true "hard raid" controller, and probably made by ACard, SIIG or Sonnet and used with PATA/ATA drives.
When you move a drive to some controllers they also may need to be reformatted.
You should have reset nvram.
Checked for new firmware and whether there are newer drivers (extensions).
If I was investing in a controller for my system today, it would be SATA, probably SeriTek, and either 10K Raptor or 250GB or larger drive.
The trouble buying from OWC is even if it is DOA, they charge 15% and you have to ship etc. but I would return it if you can't erase or partition the drive in Disk Utility after making sure it shows up in System Profiler, and works with your Sonnet Tango.

Can a "Raid" formate be helpful

I have two hard drive on my Mac - a 40 GB & a 60 GB drive. Would a "Raid" combine the drive so as to provide me with a 10 GB solution? If so how? If not why?
Secondly how can I move my "Bootable" drive over to the larger drive?
Can I do so using Disk Utility's "Restore" feature?
I'm running a Power Mac, G4, “QuickSilver”, 733 MHz with a L2 cache of 256 KB and a bus speed of 133 MHz. It’s Memory is max’ed out at 1.5 GB and it’s Boot ROM is version 4.2.5f1. the CPU is a Power PC G4 (2.1).

Thefireguy, welcome.

Yes also, however I would recommend Carbon Copy Cloner, just be sure make bootable is checked in the preferences.

ACARD AEC-6860M PCI RAID ATA 66 card not showing connected hard drives

I just installed an ACARD AEC-6860M PCI card in my G4 (Quicksilver 2002) and am having some difficulty getting Disk Utility to recognize the drives. I know other people in these forums have used this particular card before (Related thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5688908), so I'm hoping you can help me.
The AEC-6860M is a PCI RAID card for 2 ATA drives. I've installed the drivers for the card and verified that it appears in System Profiler. However, no combination of drives or cables makes the 2 drives I have connected to it visible in System Profiler (under SCSI or ATA) or in Disk Utility, so I can't format them and actually use them.
Can anyone share any secrets? Thanks!
(See card details at http://store.mcetech.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&ProductCode=ACA-AEC-6860M&Category_Code=CLRNCINTCARDS&ProductCount=1)

Hello birdy.....,
Sorry to take so long responding. Major disaster! My whole wall bookcase just tumbled, and I'm still working at excavating the family (of Macs).
Your card should work. I've used the Acard cards by the dozens without problem, though I've never used that particular 6860 card or set up a RAID ARRAY. Just checked, using a 6880 (RAID) though as a controller card and not as a RAID ARRAY, and found that my 2002 QS Mac would not see a standard hard drive(#2) running OSX (10.2) that had been formatted by the OSX install disk using the stock bus on the motherboard. It would, however, see a hard drive(#3) that had been formatted while connected to an ACARD controller card (6280). I'm guessing that an OSX installer disk is prepared to see and to deal with a SCSI drive, and that Disk Utility is not.
Check that.
Just removed the controller card formatted drive(#3) and re-installed the OSX(10.2) drive(#2); this time my 2002 QS saw it right away, both on the desktop and in disk utility. I guess it needed personal messenger service.
As I recall, I've seen that happen before using controller cards; as a result, I've always taken care to format a new hard drive by connecting it to a controller card if that is the way I intend to use it. Hard drives can be capricious, sometimes. At any rate, try formatting your hard drive(s) with an OSX installer disk (hoping you have one) while connected to the ACARD controller card - just click on erase (twice) and the drive formats automatically.
I'm a little mystified by reference to drivers; never installed any drivers, and always assumed none were needed.
Hope that helps. Check back and let me know.

Panther 10.3.9 RAID issue

I have a PowerMac G4 Dual 1 GHz QuickSilver with 1GB of RAM and 4 HD's. I configured disks 3 & 4 as a RAID 1 Mirror using a PCI ATA card with Mac OS X Disk Utility. They are 200 GB drives. I've had this setup running since Christmas with no problems. Today, my machine wouldn't boot up and I got the "default catch! code=300" followed by what looks like a memory location of the error, and instructions to mac-boot or shut-down.
Trying mac-boot leads to a "default catch! code=400" error message repeatedly, shut-down works as advertised.
I booted from my Mac OS X disk and ran disk utility. The volume was OK, but permission repair errored out and forced some kind of "lost contact with disk manager" error. I had to exit the disk utility and restart it, tried again, no good. Looking at the RAID in Disk Utility, it says that it is degraded (no kidding). for disk 1 and 2.
I booted DiskWarrior and ran the rebuild utility. It claimed to fix some permission and file errors, but still no boot.
I can use DiskWarrior to save my data, but the point of setting up this RAID was to avoid being in this situation in the first place!
Questions:
1. Would setting up this RAID on disks 1 & 2 on the motherboard ATA controller instead of the PCI ATA on disks 3 & 4 have avoided this problem?
2. If not, how can this be avoided and what is the point of having a RAID if when a disk goes bad you can't boot up anyway?
ps. I found http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106987 and see how to rebuild my RAID if I can ever boot into the OS again. Also, I'm a Unix admin and developer, so I'm not afraid of command lines or editing any system files (vi or die). Not tooting my own horn, just letting you know who you're dealing with.

Performance Problem - Should I add a RAID card?

Greetings. I'm currently mixing my project in 5.1 Surround. I have a Motu MKII with 5 speakers and a sub. My Soundtrack Project consists on about 12 tracks, with effects on all tracks.
PROBLEM: I get pops and clicks through the project as if the computer cannot push all data. All of my projects and media are on three SATA 500GB RAID 0 drives and my applications (Macintosh HD) are on a single SATA 500GB.
SHOULD I purchase the Mac Pro RAID Card and RAID 5 all four drives?
At work, I have the new Mac Pro with the 8Core system and I.T. has RAID'ed 5 all four hard drives and it doesn't even flinch.
Should I RAID 5 with the Mac Pro RAID Card?? Is it worth $800 and would it increase my performance?

What i would recommend to do (based on personal experience, not professional advise)... Stay away from the major companies for now because you do not want to set a low precedent with them. Wait until all baddies are off your report before trying with the major credit card companies. After your baddies are removed, refinance your auto with DCU. When you apply for the refi, they will probably offer a credit card also. Whatever the credit limit is, ask them for more. They will use the same hard pull to determine your eligibility. After you refi with DCU, apply for a "good credit" credit card such as a Quicksilver One. Some people have reported success with geting two cards from the same bank at once while only getting your score pulled once (for one or all three bureaus). Regarding your question about a high available credit... There's no right amount. Some people have a high amount available to decrease your utilization percentage when you need to keep a balance on your credit card. Say you have a combined available credit of $4,000. An unxpected car A/C breakdown costs you $2500 in cash that you do not have forcing you to charge it. You're now well above 50% credit utilization which is bad for your score. Having a much higher combined available credit will lessen that impact. If you have a total of $10,000 avaiable credit, that would bring you to 25% utilization. A general rule of thumb is to keep your utilization under 30%. It's best to keep all your cards at zero balance except for one at less than 10% utilization for that individual card. Some people have high $300k limits simply for bragging rights. Some do have it because it's addicting. Once your credit score rebounds, it's fun applying for and getting approved for high limits and low APR's that you once could never get.

Bluetooth, shared memory, striped RAID, ideas?

I'm 'building' a computer as an experiment. It's for photo editing & video viewing, communication, and scientific research. You are welcome to help answer my questions, which are trivial to the knowledgeable, but I'm not in any trouble here. Should you wish to read further, I welcome any thoughts or ideas, here or by e-mail (from your alias).
The computer is an Apple Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002 800 MHz machine with digital audio. I finally decided I needed an Apple of my own, to make DVDs of my granddaughter. This was after years of building Microsoft (retch) machines for others. However, I'm a geologist, not an engineer; so I must spend some time on the questions.
The machine will be a scientific one, built (as much as possible) with free, open-source software; and using throw-away hardware, culled mostly from dumpsters near the University (where some Yuppie larvae must reside). It's an experiment.
I should like to install three operating systems: MacOS9, MacOSX, and Darwin (running the X11 GUI); and I should like its interface strictly OOUI: not even a dock. It will be for scientific programming, video editing, and communication. The scientific software will use strictly Unix system calls.
The machine is an Apple Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002 800 MHz machine with digital audio & lots of space. It has a good Pioneer DVD writer an Nvidea GeForce 6200 graphics card with 256MB video memory, and four USB 2.0 sockets on a PCI card. In a dumpster, I found a pristine trio of Altec Lansing AVS300 speakers. (Motets on an iPod are amazing.) Is digital sound perceptively better?
1. It has no keyboard. I takes a USB keyboard, and not one for Microsoft machine I assume. Is that correct? If so, I shall look for an inexpensive Bluetooth Apple Keyboard (the last one, with the italic letters in corners). This raises the problem:
2. It has no Bluetooth. The only option I'm aware of is the D-Link DBT-120 Bluetooth 2.0 USB adapter. I should prefer one with an antenna, for my computer is a tower, far in the house. Have I any options here?
That's all I need now, unless something like PCI will soon become obsolete. Oh, no:
3. Though it's currently running a Dell D1025TM VGA CRT (which goes to sleep nicely), I should likely operate it from my wife's iBook G3, using the VNC protocol, which was already explained to me. I shall need (I believe) a connector that switches pins at the end of the straight-through Cat 5 cable connecting the Power Mac and iBook. Does anyone know who sells these?
4. Later this year I shall want to replace the VNC connection with a (US $250) wide-screen (16:10), possibly 22" LCD monitor, with HDMI socket (as on my US $40 Philips DivX DVD player) that connects with the DVI (digital) socket on the video card. It should be HDCP compliant and support at least 1080i widths (1080p is too expensive); and swivel vertically. This is also for reading books on DVD (from Google and the Internet Archive). I shall likely acquire 'SwitchResX' to adjust and save monitor settings, and I may use two monitors for programming.
I don't anticipate it's having speakers, though the DVD player may support Dolby Digital (two RCA connectors?) but these are likely analogue. It certainly doesn't support Dolby AC-3. It should appear unlikely I can afford digital audio. Is this correct? I can later afford another used Altec Lansing set, for my granddaughter's bedroom. I anticipate her placing the LCD display (which emits no radiation) on her bed as she listens to 'The Iron Giant' or 'The Last Mimsy' on the analogue speaker trio.
5. Two of its three slots are filled with 256 MB modules each, now summing to 512 MB (which, I believe, it shares with the 256 MB of the Nvidea video card. I understand I can add a 512 MB module to the third socket, summing to 1 GB processor RAM. Is this right? Must it be the same brand as the other two modules, or is a quality 3d-party brand acceptable? Must it be compatible with the video RAM as well?
6. It also came with a 60 GB ATA hard disk. I'm keen on storing data organized, elsewhere; so 60 GB is enough for me. In the past, RAID arrays could be made only of SCSI disks, though now I understand that, should I buy another 60 GB disk of identical architecture, I can create a two-disk, striped RAID array with Mac OSX 10.4.11 (non-server). Is this correct? How closely must the architectures match?
The first three question I am facing now; and the latter three I am researching.
My preferred programming languages are J (as in APL) and Java; and I have never learned Tk/Tkl, which I think I may wish to. I'll likely be creating my own icons, for these are very important in OOUIs, international sounds for events, and using folders organized by activity. The computer will be secure and self-maintaining. I'm looking into GNUstep.
Any ideas or favorite suggestions would be welcomed, here or by e-mail. Thank you very much!
Bruce

Splitting up a RAID mirror pair?

My QuickSilver dual-800 G4 won't boot. It has 2 internal drives that are configured as a RAID mirror (with Apple OS X Server RAID software).
While it's in the shop, can I pull one of the hard drives and put it in an external FireWire enclosure, allowing me to boot my backup Mac from it and access all my files? Will the QuickSilver boot from the remaining half of the RAID set until the two are reunited? When I rebuild the RAID, how do I specify which drive has the master data set?

Yes.

Help Please, Raid 0+1 Trouble

This is my fist post ever, so I am sorry if I'm not quite in the right place, or if this topic has been discussed already. I didn't find it anywhere yet.
Here's my situation.
I am running os 10.4.2 on a QuickSilver PowerMac G4 933mhz with 512mb ram. I am not running Mac os X server, just the regular os. I have 7 internal hard drives in the computer. I am using one of them as a system drive. The rest I have set up in a RAID array (0+1), that I have set up using the Disk Utility app. The remaining six are set up as follows.
I have 3 striped arrays of 2 drives each. I then have the 3 striped arrays (each made up of two drives) mirror each other. Thus giving me one mounted drive that is made up of six. Let's call it Mirror X.
The dilema.
I checked the status of my raid array (Mirror X) a couple of days ago, and noticed that one of my 3 striped sets had failed to start up, or mount as part of the raid. Mirror X was still being populated with data though, so the drives were now "out of sync". I restarted the computer and now the raid Mirror X will not mount. My system drive is fine, and the computer starts up good. When I go to Disk Utility to check on the drives, I get the spinning gear and it says that it is looking for the device information.
Can anyone help? I am willing to break my raid array and mount one of the striped arrays if that is possible, but I don't know how. I have tried fsck -fy, but That didn't help. I'm lost, and willing to try almost anything.
Thank you.

RAID problem : build disk OK, failed to copy files to it

Hello,
I am running OS 10.4.5 server on a G4/400. I have 2 external firewire drives both connected directly to the Mac.
Using Disk Utility to set up a Striped RAID volume. Everything went OK. No errors. The new volume is 73GB in size.
Problem arises when I try to copy files to it. Tried to copy a folder containing 30GB of files to it, but it failed immediately after computing the time to take to copy. Every time.
Finder would complain that I didn't remove the RAID disk properly. Of course the disk was not ejected, nor physically unplugged.
Upon checking with Disk Utility, 1 of the hard drive would appear to be offline. Tried mounting it and it would fail. It can't be repaired too due to busy resource.
Rebuild the volume, copy again, and boom, same error again.
Very strange stuff.
Anyone come across this problem? Any solutions?
Thanks!!!

Startup - To RAID or not to RAID?

I have read several things on this forum about RAIDs. There is some concensus that using a RAID for the startup disk is a bad idea, but I'm not sure why. A friend of mine has a dual G5 with a RAID for the startup, and he thinks it's great.
Can anyone point me to numbers that show performance improvents gained by using a RAID? I'm running a Dual G4 1 GHz Quicksilver, which has a 133 MHz system bus. I assume the ATA controller is on the PCI bus. Is that running at 133 MHz as well? If the bus is much faster than the disk, which I am sure it is, then RAID would help.
I do some editing of AIFF audio files using Sound Studio, and I will also set up an external SCSI RAID to use as a scratch disk. From my experience with large files using a single disk, I think it would be worth the effort to gain some speed.

Russ, thanks for your reply. It's unclear how joining clip fragments together with Streamclip would be any different than joining the clip fragments together in a new compound clip.?
Luis, bom dia
There appear to be no timecode breaks in the tapes. The duration of some of the shots is several minutes and when I watch the timecode display on the decks or on the camcorder, it appears to run smoothly. So any timecode break must be a millisecond or two. And for some reason, QuickTime gives an error message when I try to set up a new movie recording: "The operation could not be completed."

How to: make one or two partions at a raid system?

Hey
how can i make one or more a partions at a raid system?
i will make the partions at a 250gb raid. one with 120gb for the bootsector, and the other for documents, etc.
is there a hwo to anywhere? dont find one?
please read my second question.... 2 raids at one mac pro?
regarads

O.K., i was looking the hole day to get that partions on a raid working.
to make the partions on each HD with the same volume, this is no problem. when you then create the first raid, works fine. but when you make the second raid, you get a massage, that this raid is not found.
then you see both raids at the disc utilty, but only at the first you seen the volumen down under, by the second not. the first works, the second is not avabiele.
so, now i have only one big mirrowed raid for my boot sector, and its runs fast, quick and without big noise... thats what i want, and the second big raid for my files.
2 raids at one mac pro with 4 hd. one with 2 x 250 gb hd for the bootsector, and the other with 2 x 500gb for files
thx to all, and you kappy
