Re: Mixing Narrow & Wide Drives on PT III?

Samhein,

I'll have to check, but I'm not sure we've tested this configuration. We've looked at wide drives on the Disk I/O, and generally, it works. (There are some known issues -- recent IBM...

Re: EPT (isn\'t that a pregnancy test?)

LUN stands for Logical Unit Number. I have to admit I'm a bit sketchy on the details, but basically, it's a way to extend the device number limits of the SCSI bus. Every target is a logical unit,...

- Double-click on one...

Sure - I asked you for info regarding the Adaptec 39160 for months - and after months of silence, you posted a brief message saying it was a no go, but you didn't provide any specifics as...

Re: Boot Drive/Audio drive -SCSI?

Jim,

Sorry for the delay. I'd strongly recommend option 2.

I'd also suggest you keep the Pro Tools application on the boot drive.

Re: DigiSCSI Kit/Atto Card does not work with FWB-what\'s the solution?

Disco,

Well Steve, all I meant by that is this - it seems like you are unwilling to even discuss what you know about SCSI cards unless they are already officially approved.

Well, first of all,...

Re: The SCSI chain

Sidereal,

I understand that with a single-channel card, the performance of all your drives will be determined by the slowest device in the chain.

This is a common misunderstanding. The short...

Re: error -9073

Check the DAE Playback Buffer size on the offending system. It should normally be at 2. If it's at 1 or 0, that's probably the culprit.

Hope this helps.

Re: Atto Express and APS drives compatibility?

Cander,

Can give me more specifics on the nature of the problem?

Are the drives showing up on the desktop? Is Pro Tools hanging? More information will help.

Re: 9600 question

There is a slight advantage because it will reduce the number of drives competing for time on the Adaptec card. This tends to make
transactions more speedy.

Your manual should have jumper setting diagrams that will show you how to configure the Term Power. It should be as easy as moving the Term Power jumper from its current position to a slightly...

Re: DigiSCSI Kit/Atto Card does not work with FWB-what\'s the solution?

As far as using the Apple drivers on my system drive - it is a PowerTower Pro, not an
Apple OEM drive, so I'm using FWB.

Sure. That's correct.

Since when have you "long recommended" that...

Re: confusing scsci

I'd recommend jumpering them for Force Single-Ended.

You will get no advantages using LVD drives on a single-ended bus. They will just behave like single-ended drives.

Re: ATTO EPCI Single Channel - DAE error -36

If this is indeed an Apple OEM version of the ATTO card, we don't support it. The OEM versions typically use non-standard firmware that -- as...

Re: DigiSCSI Kit/Atto Card does not work with FWB-what\'s the solution?

I connect more than one hard drive to either SCSI chain on the ATTO card, and the
computer boots up, happy Mac appears, and then the computer freezes on happy Mac and
goes no further.

Can you provide a point of clarification: Do the problems you describe go away when different drives are used? If so, what drives are they (make and model)?

Re: DSI crippling DAE drives - Steve, any progress?

Rich,

I can't give you many specifics, I'm afraid. I can tell you that there are several fixes being addressed, and it's taking a little longer than we anticipated.
