Hello,
Digi, will there be support for the Magma 6 Slot PCI Express to PCI-X Expansion chassis with the Mac Pro? I just bought a new MacPro dual core 2.66 computer installed PT 7.2.1 and connected my Magma chassis and nothing. I know this is unsupported at the moment but I was hoping it would work but it doesn't. Protools crashes at the initalizing hardware portion of the startup. Will there be support for the Magma stuff?

Thanks,
aar

Hi there!
Does 7.2.1 run os OS 10.4.8?
Because we updated the firmware on the Mac Pro and now OS 10.4.7 is a drag!
Apple says, that you can't downgrade the firmware...
Can we install 10.4.8? Please say yes...

Have you got any further with this? I'd be very interested in using this configuration.

Why don't you just buy the Digidesign HD|Expansion and get guaranteed support and functionality ?

[Pete Gates]

Hi,
Because I've already got a Magma chassis on my G5 and I was interested in the new PCIe->PCI-X bridge card they do, which is essentially what these new chassis have inside. I may end up having to buy the Expansion HD, I'm aware of that.

Thanks,
Pete
