| SiliconImage SiI3132 Hi guys, I have been using the SiliconImage SiI3132 sata2 controller (expressport) with an akasa integral and a western digital scopio black 2.5" hard drive on my macbook pro for a while now. It has always had issues with connecting and disconnecting and causing crashes but it worked in some form or another. Sice the last update for leopard (10.5.7) however i havent managed to get it to recognise the drive being plugged into it. Unfortunately the Scorpio black has failed on me and im gunn have to send it back to scan for an RMA but i have another new one on the way so i can get things done in the meantime. Il report back then if it starts to work again. I was wondering if anyone else has had any issues using this controller chipset on OSX and if they had managed to find any workarounds to get it going? I googled it and found a few threads where people have had issues a while back but cant seem to find the useful ones anymore  My XFire = Biscuiteer Main PC: Q6600 | P5P45 TD Turbo | 4GB GSkill Ripjaw | GTX260 SSC | 2 x F3 500GB RAID0 | W7 x64 Laptop :15.4" Macbook Pro 2.2GHz | 3GB RAM | 128MB M8600GT | 7200RPM 160GB HDD Server/HTPC: E1200 | XFX MG-610i | 1GB Corsair VS | Nvidia 6200TC | F1 750GB | WD 320GB | Granadia G01 | Ubuntu x64 9.04 Phone/PDA : HTC Touch Pro | 8GB SD Card | Energy ROM |

| Re: SiliconImage SiI3132 according to silicon image you need to contact the manufacturer of the drive/enclosure. just to be sure are you using the latest drivers? http://www.siliconimage.com/support/...x?pid=32&cat=3 Originally Posted by Jay Beginners guide to raid Beginners guide to raid post edition Hexus.Social - FAQ Buy my stuff

| Re: SiliconImage SiI3132 Yeah they said that to avoid having to deal with people them self... its a total lie. Iv kind of given up trying to get it to work atm think im just gunna buy a FW800 enclosure but they are quite rare for 2.5" drives My XFire = Biscuiteer Main PC: Q6600 | P5P45 TD Turbo | 4GB GSkill Ripjaw | GTX260 SSC | 2 x F3 500GB RAID0 | W7 x64 Laptop :15.4" Macbook Pro 2.2GHz | 3GB RAM | 128MB M8600GT | 7200RPM 160GB HDD Server/HTPC: E1200 | XFX MG-610i | 1GB Corsair VS | Nvidia 6200TC | F1 750GB | WD 320GB | Granadia G01 | Ubuntu x64 9.04 Phone/PDA : HTC Touch Pro | 8GB SD Card | Energy ROM |
