System Requirements

3ware 9590SE-4ME RAID controllers require the following:

Drives

Drives must be 3.5" and meet serial ATA 150 (SATA-1) or serial ATA 300 (SATA 2) Gb/s standards. SATA 2 drives will have better performance.

A list of drives that have been tested is available at http://www.3ware.com/products/cables.asp

Operating System and Computer

Mac OS 10.4 or later, running in a Power Mac G5 (PowerPC-based) with PCI Express.

Note: The 3ware 9590SE-4ME RAID controller does not currently work with the Mac Pro.

3DM 2 (3ware Disk Manager) displays information in a browser. It requires the following:

One of these browsers:

Safari™ 2.0.4 or newer

Firefox® 1.5.0.4 or newer

JavaScript must be enabled

Cookies must be enabled

For best viewing, screen resolution should be 1024 x 768 or greater, with 16-bit color or greater.

Note: When using the 3ware HTML Bookshelf, the Back button on the Safari browser does not step you back through pages accessed in the bookshelf. You can use the navigation features built into the bookshelf, however, including the Previous/Next arrows at the top of each page, the breadcrumbs, and the Contents/ Index/Search pane at the left.

Tip: The Back button does work correctly when viewing the 3ware HTML Bookshelf in Firefox.
