What IDE driver for a SATA HD for a KT4V ?

I have a new KT4V board with a WD 120 SATA hard drive. I need to install Win2K server on it. I can not discover what drivers to use so that Win2K will recognized the HD.
From what I can tell it uses the VT8235 chipset, but I can't locate anything for it.
All help appreciated.

Is the drive jumper set correctly, WD uses a setting for "stand alone" that most others do not use. If you have it set as master, and it is the only drive on that channel, it will not be reconised. Hope that helps.

What hard drives for a 2002 quicksilver

Need new hard drive for power mac G4 Quick Silver 2002 model
What type should i get and what is maximum size i could get for this old crock
thank you

Hi-
Any IDE/PATA 3.5" drive will work.
There is no capacity limitation with the 2002 machine, so the 500 GB drives are no problem.
The WD5000AAKB is a very good drive to consider.

What Size Drive for Media Cache?

Hi there,
I'm about to edit a large project (5TB of 4K RED footage and counting) on a laptop and am intending to use the setup below for disks. Ideally I would have gone for a "4 disk" setup, but I've maxed out my eSATA connections and would have to use USB for anything else. If coincidentally you can see any problems with this configuration please let me know!
Disk Setup
C Drive 750GB (OS, Programs)
3x 2TB Drives in eSATA docking stations (Media, Projects)
Second internal hard disk (Previews, Media Cache, Exports)
I'm intending to install a second hard drive in my laptop to use for the Media Cache. What size/speed drive should be used for this purpose?
Thanks!

Perhaps only that the predominant holy grail on this forum is achieving a high PPBM score, not necessarily edit 4K.
I've worked with 2K and 4K files on very slow machines, and I am not an editor - a systems integrator. It's being done.
Personally, I wouldn't dedicate a disk or a volume to media cache and DB - I believe that money is better spent on the main media volume's speed and capacity. People who have done it on modern (not old) systems haven't reported much of a performance boost. But if you find otherwise, I'd love to hear about it.
In your case, since you don't seem to plan to have a relatively fast main media volume (e.g. an eSATA RAID0), a separate drive for media caching and database may have a performance benefit. The size of it depends on the size of your projects, how complex your project and timelines are, how much rendering they require. Usually even a small disk (under 100GB) will do just fine for the purpose; the current "sweet spot" is around 256GB SSD and 500-750GB 7200rpm mechanical drive.

Controller IDE driver for 6367 and WinXP

Hi,
I have install winXP on a pavilion with ms 6367 mainboard
I find the driver of audio, eth, .. of the nforce chipset but windows xp see the controller IDE like a Controller IDE standard.
Anyone Know where Can I find the driver for the IDE Controller?
I try all on the nvidia site and on msi site with no result

Your motherboard uses an nforce chipset. It appears that the motherboard was built for the OEM market. Here is a link for the nvidia chipset driver packafe that had the IDE drivers included. You need to get all bios updates Hewlett Packard site since MSI doesn't appear to list it on their site.

Wrong IDE Driver for Vista

The MS Vista SiS IDE Drivers posted for the MB "655 Max HT Ready" @ here:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=424&kind=1
... ARE WRONG!!!
Actually the driver version is vR2.03 which was created to be compatible with Win2000/XP BUT NOT VISTA!.
Do not dare to install that driver on ur MB, once it's installed it will KILL ur OS (MS Vista). You wont even be able to access the OS in safe mode, it continues throwing a BSOD that appears some micro-seconds then it reboots automatically the system.
The people on charge of posting the drivers should be extra careful be4 posting them. It could lead a person to loose all his/her info by only trusting in the drivers posted @ manufacturer's OFFICIAL SITE!
THESE DRIVERS SHOULD BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY!! (before it causes more serious damages in people's systems).

Quote from: tcsenter on 02-March-07, 08:18:53
Well the driver date is clearly labeled 2002, which ought to have raised a little curiosity or suspicion by any observant person.
You are totally right also. But that date is refered clearly to the OS stated in the info (OS: Win2000/XP)... so could be the case that by some reason they forgot to clarify the different version for "the 1 released" for Vista.
In addition, as u can check in a glance, the size of both files is different, which could lead to reinforce my previous theory (they forgot to clarify the driver version for the 1 released for Vista).
Quote from: tcsenter on 02-March-07, 08:18:53
There is no IDE driver available that is newer than the one already included in Vista for your SIS chipset.
Yea unfortunately, I discovered that after damaging my OS. But fortunately I had backed up the OS (by creating an image).
I mainly created this thread for saving other's people work/life/files ... since I was already saved!

RS480M2 sees IDE drive but not SATA drive

I had never had any problems with my computer until now. I installed a Samsung 250GB IDE drive internally besides my usual Samsung 80GB SATA drive but the BIOS does not see the SATA (which is connected to IDE Controller), it only recognizes the new IDE (connected to Channel 0 Master). I also have a LiteOn CD connected to Channel 1 and it is OK. The SATA drive was working normally before as the only drive and I also know the new IDE drive works because I used it on an external enclosure as a backup. Any ideas?

You may need to try cable select instead.

What Maxtor drive for G5??

I've just purchased 2 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB Hard drives that have caused problems since I installed them 4 days ago. Reading these forums it sounds like there are major compatibility issues with G5 PowerMacs. I've attached these to a Sonnet Tempo X 4+4 sata controller. My Mac freezes ramdomly and sometimes will not boot.
Does disabling the SSC thing cure this? I've limited the drives to sata 1 using the jumper on the drives.
I can exchange these for Maxtor DiamondMax 10 drives, but am hesitant in case incompatibility issues arise.
Does any body have any issues with the Maxtors in a G5 2.0 PCI? What model would you recommend?
Thanks
Andrew

I've had a thought.
I'm running these 2 new Seagate Sata II HD's and an older Western Digital Sata I HD off the same Sonnet Tempo X 4+4 Sata controller (3 different ports). I'm not clear on whether SSC is factory disabled or not on these new HD's, but I have them limited to 1.5gb/s. The sonnet supports sata II and SSC aparently.
Would this cause some kind of conflict having 2 flavours of Sata HD attached? Or should the Sonnet accept different flavours of Hard Drive?

Confused..what external drive for MB

Hi all, new MB owner here. I was in a trip to US a couple of weeks ago and bought myself a MB from Amazon. In my last day in the US, Apple announces the new models and that's a bit of a bummer since there is no time to send back and upgrade but still very happy with my purchase.
Anyway, I need to get an external drive mainly to store photos and I want it to be fast enough to work on these photos with iPhoto, Photoshop CS3, RAW conversion etc.
I also need to be able to read from this drive from both my MB and my WinXP PC.
So, first of all will I be able to edit photos from an external drive(will the HD be fast enough) and at the same time be able to read it both from MacOSX and WinXP?
Then I have read that there are 3 options available: Firewire 400, eSata and USB2. I guess that USB2 is the slowest so can I actually use any of the remaining 2 options and what would you suggest? How can I connect an eSATA drive to the MB?
Thanks!!!

USB 2.0 is actually faster than firewire 400
Not on a practical level - even with no other devices on the same USB node. If you've got active regular speed devices on the same node (like a hub) it'll even slow it down further. Add low-speed devices on the same node (like a USB mouse) and a good chunk of your bandwidth is gone. USB wasn't originally designed for high-speed transfers, but the high-speed standard was added on later.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireWire#ComparisontoUSB
Although high-speed USB 2.0 runs at a higher signaling rate (480 Mbit/s) than FireWire 400, typical USB PC-hosts rarely exceed sustained transfers of 35 MB/s (280 Mb/s), with 30 MB/s (240 Mb/s) being more typical (the theoretical limit for a USB 2 high-speed bulk transfer is 53.125 MB/s). This is likely due to USB's reliance on the host-processor to manage low-level USB protocol, whereas FireWire automates the same tasks in the interface hardware.
USB is a host-driven interface. Every packet has to be requested by the host controller, and this usually means devoting CPU resources.
FireWire typically has sustained transfer rates of 40+ MB/sec.

What external drive for Time Machine?

Hi all,
I just upgraded to Leopard and want to set up TM, so I have been looking at external drives. I have done some research, read the forums, and I am more confused than before! I think I want a desk model with FW connection. I keep reading how unreliable the various brands can be (WD My Book 1T, Free Agent, Simpletech, etc.), so I am not sure how to proceed.
I take lots of photos which I do not want to lose.
Thanks for your help!

Hi, and welcome to the forums.
You're right about Firewire. Many posters here think it's much more reliable than USB.
If you have a F/W 800 port, look for a drive that can use it. Theoretically, it's twice as fast as F/W 400. USB will work, too, and is usually about as fast as F/W 400, but if you go that route, be sure to get a drive with it's own power supply, as taking power from your Mac via USB can be problematic (and don't use a USB connector on your keyboard for this).
Most of the major brands seem to be generally good and reliable, but even the best have some problems. I got a Seagate Free Agent Pro 500gb a few months ago, with F/W 400 and USB, and have had no trouble with it. The main reason I bought it, rather than any of the others, was the 5-year warranty. Most of the others only have 1 year.

T43: Looking for IDE driver?

The Lenovo Drivers Site for the T43 only seems to support everything but XP?
When I try to install an IDE driver for the other platforms (ME,2000,NT,98,95) I get an error.
The Link on the Drivers page has a comment net to it stating it's for XP, but the software explodes into about 5 directories and none of them conatin an XP driver.
Not sure how my IDE Channel lost it's driver, but I can't seem to find a replacement for XP-Pro???
Any help or alternate source for XP drivers for a T43 ??
Thanks,
Guy

Guy, welcome to the forum,
I don't know which driver you are trying to install, but all commen drivers for the T43 can be found on this site or you could try using the System Update utility. That being said, as the T43 has a S-ATA to P-ATA bridge, it may be that you need to install the Chipset driver from the driver site.

Pavilion zv5000 - IDE Adapter for HDD?

I have a Pavilion zv5000 series laptop whose hard drive died several years ago. My dad sent it to a work friend, who figured out that it was the HDD, and I guess he threw the drive away, with an adapter with it. I picked up an IDE drive for it, stupidly assuming that the pins on the drive just fit into the connector on the laptop itself. After a lot of confusion as to why the drive wouldn't fit, a search showed an adapter with a regular IDE connector on one end and a connector similar to the one on the laptop on the other. I'm asking whether it is true that I need one, even though I don't see any other way for it to connect.
Also, four pins are isolated from the main pins on the drive. The old Molex connector also had four pins. Are these the power pins, and does the adapter accomodate these too? There doesn't seem to be any other connector on the laptop. Again, I just want to confirm this and that I didn't just buy the wrong thing for this laptop.
So, is the adapter what I'm looking for?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Yes I used to own a zv5000 and I can confirm there was a black plastic connector that went over the brass IDE pins on the hard drive to allow connection to the motherboard.
This is what you need:

865p NEO IDE Driver

Hi,
should i install the IDE driver for my 865p NEO board to fully take
advantage of U-ATA 100 feature ? My system spec is shown below.

Intel inf is enough, you can also install the intel application accelerator specificly for the IDE (IAA) but I don't like it.

I want to transfer files from a functioning hard drive in a nonfunctioning MacBook Pro to an external drive. I have an IDE/SATA drive adapter. The files won't fit on the drive for a working computer I have. Can I use it to transfer files to the external?

Good luck and you are welcome.
Like I said, I bought one of their inexpensive enclosures and now can use the hard drive just as a source for the files that are on it...my external drives are much larger and faster so I just plug that drive in when I need something from it.
This one is on sale for $16 http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/ES2.5BPU2S/

What is the Highest Capacity SATA Drive for a REV A G5

What is the Highest Capacity SATA Drive for a REV A G5 (SP 1.8 with 8 RAM slots), it came with a 160, I know 250s work... will anything higher?
I am looking at this if nothing else, it seems to be a nice 250,

but I am curious if I could go higher
Thanks

(Rep points given)

Hitachi 400GB was trouble even on SeriTek controllers. Like the early 7K250, it was not a native SATA drive. Early SATA drives were often using Marvel or some other bridge on PATA drives. The T7K250 and 7K500, or Maxtor are fine. WD has some new drives, one model is optimized for RAID-only firmware.
Whatever happened to just plug in and go, anyway?

I got an old Apple G5 shell from Goodwill. I'd like to salvage the Superdrive and use it as an external drive for my Apple laptop. Is this possible, and what cables would I need if so?

Thanks in advance, God bless!

That's a nice Pioneer DVD±RW drive - and an upgraded replacement for the original optical drive that shipped with that G5. For a finished look, you'd want to install it in an external enclosure for 5.25" IDE/ATAPI drives that converts it to USB connectivity. Because SATA optical drives have replaced ATAPI drives in recent years, the selection is getting more limited for a new enclosure, although used ones can undoubtedly be found at ebay. Here's an example of one, although it only features USB connectivity. You can also find enclosures that have both FireWire and USB connectivity, which for Mac users is beneficial. Booting the computer (if needed) by a FireWire-connected device is generally more reliable than USB booting. If this isn't important to you, then a USB-only enclosure would be adequate. The enclosure will have directions, but essentially all you need to do is plug in the power cable and data ribbon cable and then secure the drive to the bottom plate of the enclosure with the included machine screws.
