SATA II drive in a SATA slot of PowerMac Quad G5: 1.5GB/sec vs. 3.0 GB/sec

I have a Quad G5 PowerMac with a Hitachi Deskstar® 7K500 (HDS725050KLA360) 500 GB SATA II Hard Drive in the upper hard drive slot. Profiler says this slot is a Serial-ATA slot. Does a SATA II drive in a SATA slot communicate at 1.5 GB/sec instead of 3.0 GB/sec? Any problems with adding a second internal Hitachi Deskstar® 7K500 (HDS725050KLA360) 500 GB SATA II Hard Drive?

Sometimes cannot start PC: problem with Hitachi SATA Hard drive and K7N2G-ILSR

I have major problem with my 160Gb SATA Hitachi hard drive and my MSI K7N2G-ILSR motherboard. Sometimes the PC can be started, sometimes it cannot.
After I installed a clean build of Windows XP Pro SP1 onto my new hard drive (as the only hard drive in my PC) and install all the necessary drivers, the system runs smoothly. However, after about 2 to 3 weeks, sometimes when I start the PC, it cannot detect the hard drive and hence it claimes that it cannot find any VMI Pool Data (i.e. no OS detected). What makes it really horrible is that, it is like the lottery everytime when I start the PC. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The highest record was 8 consecutive failures (by resetting or by turning the power off and on again) before I can start the machine properly. Also, the system sometimes just crashes in the middle of operating.
I have already sent the hard drive back to Hitachi. Got the same model of hard drive back as replacement, but the replacement has the same problem, except with the replacement drive the PC can be started eventually after many tries, while with the previous drive it is possible that the PC cannot be started until after a few days later.
Also, it seems that my drive can detect either SATA hard drive or PATA hard drive, but not both. (If I leave my old PATA drive connect in the primary IDE channel, Windows cannot detect the new SATA drive.)
Is my motherboard faulty? Can it only use PATA drive?
My PC's spec is as follows:
AMD Athlon XP 2500+
512Mb PC3200 SDRAM (set to run at 166MHz)
Hitachi 160Gb SATA Hard drive on 1st SATA channel (Model #HDS722516VLSA80)
Sony DVD+-RW drive and Panasonic DVD-ROM drive on secondary IDE channel
Use onboard video (GeForce MX)
US Robotech V92 internal PCI modem
SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Player soundcard
Onboard audio disabled
300W PSU
OS is Windows XP Pro SP1 (with all latest security patches up to date)

that is not entirly correct.
many harddrives just come with different ways to connect them.
the only sata drives i now that spins faster is western digital raptors 10k rpm.
all other is running at 7200rpm.
older drives run at 5400rpm
Yes to get the full benefit of RAID, the Raptors are the way to go.Anything else, no significant difference.

Upgrading DVD - Add SATA card & Drives -SIMPLE

I just thought I would pass on my successful upgrading and expansion of my Dual 2.0A G5. I'm not endorsing the following products - just want to identify what worked in my scenario.
I bought an internal Pioneer DVR-111D DVD burner (16X and Dual Layer capable) for under $50 new. I followed the owner's manual that came with the G5 for replacing your optical drive. The instructions are clear and straight forward. The only thing you must do first is pop out the disk tray on the new drive using the paper clip emergency eject hole (before you install the drive). Then lift up on the front plate/door to remove this plastic piece so that the tray will open and extend out of the bay without hitting the computer frame. Out with the old 4X and in with the New 16X/DL. Booted up, called up System Profile and there was my new drive. Burned a 4.17GB test disk at 16X and all worked A-OK. No drivers, no configuring, Notta. Just Plug and Play.
Next, I bought OWC's Serial ATA 2-Channel PCI controller card, also OWC's dual bay external SATA HD enclosure box and two Maxtor 300 GB SATA hard drives. At $110 per 300 GB internal drive price, I've decided to archive all my paying video projects to their own individual drives and store them. Between the drive and original tapes I'm covered and the price for storage only gets better.
Again I followed the G5 owner's manual for installing a PCI card. Here is the first snag to watch for IF your G5 has the PCI-X slots where Slots 2 & 3 are 64 bit, 100 MHz and Slot 4 is 64 bit, 133 MHz speed. This OWC SATA card was recognized in Sys Profile in Slot 4 but would not display the drives in the ATA Bus profile nor in Finder. I moved the card to Slot 3 and the 100 MHz speed was apparently more compatible. Sys Profile will identify the PCI Card as a SCSI type but don't let that throw you off. The ATA Bus Sys Profile recognizes two additional busses - one for each Maxtor drive ID'd as disk 2 and disk 3. Your DVD drive will also be listed as an ATA bus component.
The Maxtor internal drives I have come with two pair of jumper pins next to the cabling plugs. The drive arrived in a non-jumpered setting. You need to move the jumper over to the left pair to enable 1.5 Gb/s SATA transfer speeds. Its labeled J4 and also 1.5 Gb/s.
Lastly, this one bit me twice before I solved the mystery. I only had ONE drive show up in System Profile and on the Finder window initially. After much cable swapping, port swapping, rebooting, I went back INSIDE the dual bay enclosure to check cable connections. I noticed the data cable plug on the no-show drive was slightly askew due to other wiring pressing against it. I lined it back straight, powered everything up and that drive showed up now, BUT the other drive disappeared. Back in the box, yep, I bumped that ribbon cable plug on the other drive. Lined it back up and all works fine now. Watch out for these very "position sensitive" data cable plugs.
Summarizing: Even with the SATA card and dual external bay and the two new drives, there is NO configuring (other than giving a name to your new hard drives using Disk Utility). Truly PLUG & PLAY! The SATA card comes with a disk containing the instructions for setting up your 2 Channel card and dual drives in a RAID configuration. Very detailed. I'm not running RAIDs so I did not perform this very extensive procedure. Not sure if this would even be necessary once Disk Utility recognizes the new drives and DU has the ability to configure RAID drives much easier. Lastly, since I do a lot of video work and especially now in HD, larger drives are a necessity, BUT data speeds are also important with the high demands of realtime playback in FCP HD. I decided to go with the SATA bus speeds and drives rather than USB or Firewire drives to match the capabilities of my two internal SATA drives. If you plan to work in HD its probably a better way to go.

Can I add a SATA optical drive to my G5?

I want to replace the optical drive on my G5 (PPC 1.6 GHz) with the latest dual-layer Pioneer DVR-115D (IDE) or 216 (SATA)
The 115D is not widely available any more, most shops only seem to have the 216.
Can I add this drive to my G5? I already have 2 SATA hard drives in place, so is it possible to add another SATA device? If so, how do I add a 3rd SATA cable and where would it plug into?
Thanks.

Hi Japamac and everyone else,
I'm a new Mac user and received a used G5 from a friend. I made a very stupid mistake and purchased the Pioneer Dvr-216 instead of the 116. So now I have a SATA burner with an IDE interface. Unfortunately, NewEgg won't refund this particular product.
So I've thought of two options:
1.) Turn it to an external burner and have two optical drives (although the original is about to crap out soon). But I'm not sure what enclosures are compatible. I've looked into the NexStar DX NST-530S2 but the tech rep said that they haven't tested that enclosure with the DVR 216.
2.) Try to find a SATA controller. But since I'm really new to Macs and this computer is slightly older, I'm not sure which controller to buy. It says on the side panel of the G5 that it has a PCI-X slot.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly greatly appreciated (I've spent the last three days researching, but I'm still not completely confident in what I've found)
Thanks.

I use the imac mainly for editing Video which when doing so it has reached temperatures of near to 60° C which causes the program to become unstable and needs to be cooled down to operate correctly.
An Apple technician (by phone) advised me to download an smcfancontrol. This allows each individual fan to increase speed and also advises the current temperature at °C. The smcfancontrol has been downloaded but this has not resolved the problem. By increasing the speed of the fan more heat is generated and creates additional noise.
I have since taken the iMac to an Apple Store for examination as suggested by APPLECARE when the fans were found to be working correctly. An Apple Store technician carried out a test, but not whilst working under the pressure of FINAL CUT PRO when the iMac generates a high temperature.
The Temperature Specification for this model is

Clearly the temperature my iMac is operating at is excessive and could cause the computer to break down prematurely. Has anyone experienced this problem.

When was the last time you cleaned/vacuumed out all of your iMac's vents, slots and ports.
You need to do this with the iMac powered down, disconnected from power and everything disconnected.
Lay your iMac, screen down, on a soft surface, like a heavy towel. Use a small electronics vac, or portable or full size vac with hose and a crevice tool attachment and carefully and slowly vacuum every vent, slot and port on your iMac.
Then reconnect everything up, power up and download and install iStat Pro. Start working, then report the temps of your iMac after this has been done.
When using SMCFan Control, it is important not to run the fans at too high an RPM. This doesn't generate heat on its own, but will suck in more dust, lint and dirt into your iMac, and that will be the cause of additonal increases in heat.
I run my fans in the range of 1400-1600 RPMs. You can go as high as 1800 RPMs but it is important to keep the RPM range below either 1800 or below 2000 RPMs.
I, also, run a very small desktop fan pointed toward the upper back of my iMac to keep temps down even further.

Two SATA Hard Drives, Main Drive only shows up in Bios if PC is off

I am having a devil of a problem. My main hard drive is a SATA Seagate 500GB, my other HD is a STAT 80GB that I use for a scratch drive for Photoshop. When I boot from the PC being off, the MB recognizes my Seagate 500 Sata HD. When I reboot, it cannot find the 500 GB and I get the NTLDR is Missing message that system files aren't found. This occurs no matter how often I reboot.
I have swapped SATA cables on the drives and that did not make a difference! The cables are securely connected, as are the power cable.

I replaced the CMOS battery. It was dying. I checked it on two separate battery checkers.
"Looks to me as if Windows has messed up partitions in some way.
Check the following, please:
- is the Windows disk set as frst boot drive in the bios?
- Is NTLDR actually on that drive in the root? (You must let Windows show hidden/system files).
- Is the drive detected by the bios at a reboot? (Does it show in the POST-screen?)"
Floppy Drive first, then CD-ROM (Sata), then the Seagate HD.
NTDLR is on the drive in the Root. When it recognizes the drive and boots from it, it is fine.
No, it is not detected at a reboot. It does not show in the POST screen.

MSATA or SATA III Drive

Hello,
I currently own a T420-4177CTO with a 160GB SSD drive and am running out of space. Without taking any covers off I believe this is installed in the main bay underneath the unit. After some research I believe I have a couple of options. One would be to simply upgrade the existing SSD to a larger SATA III 512GB SSD in the same slot, which as I understand it is SATA III capable -about $500.00. Second option would be to add an mSATA drive to the available slot on the side of the unit ( not the ultra bay) and move mostly storage files to that new drive - about $260.00. The read / write speeds look to be similar but the power consumption for the mSATA is higher and it might be a bit slower. My guess is that it will be faster than the current factory installed drive so that should not be a concern. Are those assumptions correct ? If so should I take the opposite approach and move the operating files to the newer drive ?
Thanks.

Your current SSD is a Intel 520 if i am correct, since Lenovo offered intel ssd in the 160 gigs capacity. If it is the Intel one, then your mSATA will be slightly slower in terms of boot up (by 1 or 2 secs at most), and other data bandwidth intensive apps.
For normal use mSATA and 2.5 inch SATA is about the same.
I am currently on a mSATA 128 gigs and 500 gigs hdd in the main bay, and the performance difference compared to a pure Intel 520 that i had before is minimal.

Jin Li

SATA Hard Drive no longer recognized by Mega 865

I recently put together an MSI Mega 865 barebone system with the following specifications:
Processor: Intel 3.2c Ghz (Northwood core)
Hard Drive: Western Digital SATA 10kRPM Raptor
Memory: 1 GB (2 x 512MB) Kingston 3200 (400Mhz)
DVD Player: Plextor 8X DVD RW
Video Card: HIS Excalibure 9800Pro 128 MB
OS: WinXP
Finally got everything up and running, and then I went to boot up, and the system can no longer find the SATA harddrive. In fact, it's not even an option in the BIOS now.
My question is the following:
Would the SATA be available all of the time, or only if a SATA enabled harddrive was recognized?
When the system is first powered on by plugging the power cord into the wall, the hard drive makes a small amount of noise, as if it's spinning a bit. When the computer starts up, there is no noise at all, although the hard drive does get warm (which makes me think there is power to the unit).
I tried the 2nd power supply (old IDE) for the hard drive, but that provided that same results as the SATA power supply.
There were some inconsistencies with my mega 865 prior to this. First, the HIFI would randomly lock up, and the only way to get it back was to unplug the computer from the wall. 2nd, it had lost communication on the serial port (why, I don't know). 3rd, and final, it doesn't seem to recognize my hard drive (or my hard drive is ruined).
Can someone help me out here, I'm not sure whether to return my HardDrive, my MSI Mega 865, or both.

The system worked for 4 days or so. One day, I started it up, and it couldn't boot because it couldn't detect the SATA drive. When this happened I decided to flash it to the the latest BIOS, but even this did not help.
The unit had problems before, it would lock up on initial power up, the HIFI/CD/DVD would not respond (when the computer was not on of course). I would have to plug and unplug the unit 3 or 4 times before it would power on and not lock up.
I contacted MSI support, and explained my problems. They told me to return the unit to the reseller. I'm not sure if the problem was the unit, the hard drive, or both, so I went ahead and returned the HD and the MSI unit. It'll be another 2 weeks or so now before I get my computer up and running. :(

Need help in installing a SATA hard drive with 865pe NEO2

Hello there
I need a help in installing a Sata hard drive ,it is WD 250 GB , my motherboard is 865PE Noe2 , the bios is the latest one
already I got another old hard drive ,not a Sata ,a regular IDE one installed as a master hard drive
I want to install the sata hd as a slave for the IDE hd for now to transfer the files and documents
I already physically installed the Sata hard drive yet the problem is that it was listed in the bios , I followed some of the steps here in the forum mentioned but all what I got is I found it listed as the fourth IDE master , not as the primary IDE slave
in Windows Xp Sp2 it is not listed of course in the windows explorer , but it is there in the device manager
look I am very confused and I tried most of the combinations in the ide configuration in BIOS
what should I do coz I am feeling so bad and stupid ,you can consider me a n00b in this hard drive thing

1st the sata drive cannot be listed as a slave drive to the ide master [key word=ide-can be configured as master OR slave, master IF only 1 hd, master and slave IF 2 hds], on the sata controler you can have master and slave, the ide cable has two connectors for the hds, sata has only 1 hd connector.
are you wanting to install the sata as primary master and move the operating sys to that drive, if so you will need an IMAGING software to move an operating system OR you could do a fresh operating system install to the sata drive then install your programs.

Seagate 300gig sata hard drive not recognized

I'm trying to install a seagate 300gb sata hard drive in my dual 2.0 g5.
I can plug in the two cables and the drive fits in fine, it even spins, however the computer does not recognize that the drive is there.
I've checked the sata in the system profile and tried disk utility but it is simply not there. Could this be a wiring problem or a bad drive? How do I check this?

My guess is that it is a Seagate 7200.9 with SSC on. If that is the case you will need a PC and this tool:

HT5634 How to put windows 8 on MacBook Pro via sata hard drive USB off of other computer

Hi I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro 15 retina. My old laptop was windows 8 but the motherboard crashed and I have the sata hard drive that has all of my data info including OS would I be able to use the OS on Boot camp without purchasing a new license? Also how would I do that? I have put the hard drive into a portable USB device so I can access it via USB 3.0.

Others will give a better answer, but I suspect that Windows validation will consider this a "significant hardware change", meaning that it will stop working and/or you won't be able to update. Even so, it costs nothing to give it a try and see what happens.

I had a power mac g4 into which i put 3, 320 gb PATA hard drives in a raid slice config so that it worked as one drive needless to sat that i lost the g4 to a surge but the drives are good. now i have an imac, how can i recover the info off those drives

i had a power mac g4 into which i put 3, 320 gb PATA hard drives in a raid slice config so that it worked as one drive needless to sat that i lost the g4 to a surge but the drives are good. now i have an imac, how can i recover the info off those drives. can i put the drives in external cases and plug them all in, will the imac see them as a raid slice then help please

Before you have another accident:
Buy a UPS of good quality and sufficient to your needs.
I would have to assume that the drives were connected to a PCI PATA card, hopefully. Otherwise, well RAID and having drives on the same bus (master and slave).
And no backup, none at all...
Get your hands on a G4.
Data Rescue 3 from Prosoft maybe.
If they were SATA and running on PCI SATA controller, very popular and common really in G4s, more options would be open.

How to install Windows on a SATA boot drive

Here is how to install Windows XP on a SATA boot drive. This procedure was first developed by syar2003 and has been used by many iusers ncluding myself. Although it was originally developed for Neo2 mb's and Windows XP Pro, it has general applicability to systems as well.
1. Have only the SATA drive you want to be the boot drive active in your system. Disconnect the power to all other HDD's if any.
2. Have only one optical drive active. Disconnect the power to the other opticals if any. (Best to have a burner optical as master on IDE1.)
3. Plug SATA drive into SATA 1 on the mb. (it may show us as an IDE drive somewhere down the list in BIOS. That's okl)
4. Enable appropriate SATA options in BIOS. Set boot order to floppy, cd, SATA drive. Set boot priority to SATA drive.
5. Partition and format the SATA HDD using the utilites CD that came with the SATA drive. (If you don't have an HDD utilities disk, download one from the website of your HDD manufacturer.)
6. Run Windows setup. No need to load drivers at the F6 promt unless you are planning to do a RAID configuration.
7. Windows XP should install without incident.
8. After you are up and running, plug the power back into your other HDD and optical drives if any.
If you have a board older than the K8 series, it may be necessary to load the SATA drivers at the F6 prompt. If the above procedure does not work, than try it again loading the SATA drivers.
If this procedure does not work for you, it is likely that your particular SATA HDD has some compatablity problem with Windows setup and/or your motherboard. The solution to this is to try another SATA drive. In general, most failures using this procedure have been traced to certain WD, Seagate and Hitachi SATA drivers of smaller capacities. Fewer problems seem to have occured with Maxtor HDD's.

Kaplan, from an earlier post of mine regarding sata2 hdds - I have them plugged into the sata1&2 ports, installed the nvidia raid first and then installed winxp (in both raid 0 and raid 1). My bios is 3.1 and its a known problem that bios 3.3 & 3.4 have nvidia raid problems but seems to be fixed in the beta bios 3.53:
I just purchased 2 hitachi deskstar sata2 80gb hdds ($60 each at zzf) and the interesting thing about them is that you have to "enable" sata2. I have been testing the performance of sata1, sata2, raid1 and raid0 and the results are below.
The drives themselves are factory default set at sata1. Since I purchased OEM, no software or instructions were included. I had to go to the hitachi website download section to download a dos based program (the features program) to enable sata2. After enabling the hdds to sata2, they were recognized in winxp in the nforce ADMA controller device driver and the screen reads with the primary channel as Serial ATA Generation 2 - 3G...and all 4 boxes below it are checked (the boxes enable bios select xfer mode, enable read caching, enable write caching and enable command queuing are checked). An interesting thing about the sata2 spec is that all sata2 hdds must come standard with NCQ...its not advertised on these 80 gb hdds on the hitachi website (unlike the larger hitachi sata2 hdds) but its a standard sata2 spec and these 80gb hitachi hdds are recoginized in winxp as sata2.
The other interesting feature about the hitachi sata2 hdds is setting them up to operate in an adjustable "performance" to "silence" mode. The hdds are default set at high perfromance but you can manually lower the performance to increase the silence of the hdds which is fully adjustable to your liking. I tested the highest silence/lowest performance setting and you cannot hear the hard drive at all.
Testing - I tested the 2 hitachi sata2 deskstars with the first result in sata1 mode, the second in sata2 mode, the third in raid1 mode and the fourth in raid0 mode.
First, a significant increase in raid0 over sata1, sata2 and raid1 with sequential reads and writes (PC Wizard).
Write: 28mb/s vs 29mb/s vs 27mb/s vs 53mb/s
Read: 45mb/s vs 46mb/s vs 43mb/s vs 83mb/s
Second, significant increase in sata 2, raid 1 & raid 0 over sata1 with buffered reads and writes (PC Wizard).
Write: 104mb/s vs 176mb/s vs 165mb/s vs 266mb/s
Read: 123mb/s vs 200mb/s vs 200mb/s vs 293mb/s
Third, significant increase in sata 2, raid 1 & raid 0 over sata1 with burst reads (HD Tach).
Burst Read: 133mb/s vs 225mb/s vs 219mb/s vs 334 mb/s
It is interesting to note that raid1 is better than sata1 but marginally slower in all tests over sata2. Raid0 is significantly faster on all tests.

How do i install sata hard drive?

ok, i am using right now my sony dvdrw on ide1 as master and ata hard drive on ide2 as master, booting to the hard drive. i am going to install an sata hard drive and use that as the boot drive, the normal ata as a storage drive only. how will i install the sata drive? do i install it to sata 1 and then durring the install of windows xp tell it to hit f6 for third party scsi drivers and then use the intel sata floppy driver disk that came with my board? it's the MSI-6728 board. or is there anything special i need to do in the bios or what?
oh yeah. what connection for power should i use? my powersupply has sata and normal, so should i use the sata power connector? and then what's this about legacy or something in the bios, or am i wrong?

Well first of all, you dont install the Intel S-ATA Driver Disc unless you are going to create a RAID Array....Go into the BIOS and on the "On-Chip IDE Configuration" Page Set the Options like this.........
On-Chip ATA Operate Mode : Legacy
ATA Configuration : P-ATA+S-ATA
Keep S-ATA Enabled : (Greyed Out Yes)
Keep P-ATA Enabled : (Greyed Out Yes)
P-ATA Channel Selection : Both
Combined Mode Operation (At first you have to set this to P-ATA Channel 1, then switch after you Move Windows to S-ATA)
Configure S-ATA As RAID : No
Then you are Going to have to Install the OS on The SATA and Just Move the Files that you want to save from the P-ATA HDD and then Remove the P-ATA Drive from the "Boot Device" List in the BIOS....
You really should List Your Full System Specs. When you POST...Create a "Signature" with your Forum User Control Panel...........Sean REILLY875
