Setup

When you first purchase and install a new hard that is attached to the ADS3GX4R5-EM host adapter, you will need to format the hard drive using the erase tab in Disk Utility. Disk Utility can be found in the Mac OS X “Utility” folder. Once you have erased the new hard drive it will mount on the desktop and be ready for use. You can also create RAIDs using Disk Utility with the hard drives mounted in your SATA enclosure.

The SiI3124_2.0.1_Sil_Pkg driver supports hot swap, deep sleep and provides up to four external ports on the ADS3GX4R5-EM host adapter, that can be connected to as many as four individual SATA hard drives or SATA PM enclosures. When using this card with four SATA PM enclosures Power Macintosh users can support up to 20 hard drives using a single ADS3GX4R5-EM SATA host adapter.
