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.
