Description This is for a new 4 port SATA card for a PowerMac G4. It adds 4 SATA ports to most PowerMac G4 models. Supported models include all versions of the "Mirror Drive Doors", "Gigabit", "AGP", and "PCI" models. It should also work in a blue & white G3, and the first generation G5 with PCI. "QUICKSILVER" (M8493) AND "DIGITAL AUDIO" (M5183) MODELS ARE NOT SUPPORTED. It uses the Silicon Image Sil3114 chip. It's fully supported in OSX 10.2 or later. No drivers are needed. It supports booting from a SATA hard drive or SSD. It allows you to use (and boot from) drives larger than 137GB even on Macs that don't support 48 bit addressing. It does not support OS 9. It will not work in a Quicksilver (and probably also Digital Audio) G4 due to a hardware compatibility issue. Condition It is brand new. In the box You will receive a SATA card as shown in the pictures. Drives without a 4 pin Molex power connector will require a SATA power adapter (not included). |
