"You can mount s3 mac using additional software..." I'll need a translation of what that means. I have no clue.

OWC ThunderBay 4 mini Four-Bay Thunderbolt External Storage Enclosure with SoftRAID XT for 2.5-inch SATA Drives The magic word now is SATA. IDE are dinosaur bones! S Gilbert - I checked OWC. I always do. I have a 4 drive, a 2 drive and single drive enclosures from them. I can't see any IDE...

Lot's of great suggestions here. I've been using MacTracker for years. I use it regularly to identify a variety of machines and devices.

Satcomer - " I ask because sense the hardware raid it was formatted FAT32 for Windows Machines!" That's true. I got a second enclosure with 4 3.5" drives that are IDE. When I used a drive adapter/usb connector to my iMac the native formatting is 'Fat32'. The LaCie enclosures have their own way...

Nothing was mounting. I pulled the drives. I got them all formatted. They are a set of 4 500Gig IDE drives. All I need now is a 4 drive IDE enclosure. That's an iMac running 10.6.8. I formatted them with Disk Utility.

Satcomer - I hope that’s all it is.

I put a volt meter on the power supply. It passed. It has 5 volts where it's supposed to. Looks like it's time to open the case. I can mount each drive separately and re-format them. From there I can see what's wrong in there.

So far it hasn't mounted. I'm going to look for a hardware repair. I'll see if there are any tutorials out there.

The LaCie formatting must be some kind of old proprietary system. Disk utility read it as one drive. Tonight it didn't mount with usb or FW800. I'll connect it to my new iMac. I'm running an OWC raid with their raid software. I'll see if the old LaCie can show up on it. If so I'll re-format it...

My bad. First it wouldn't mount. I switched from Firewire 800 to USB and it mounted. I believe this heavy tank of a drive has four drives? It was difficult to find any real info on this thing. The user manual is available, but it's all very basic. So I believe it's a 4 drive system, sort of a...

My Lacie drive wouldn't mount. As I started it I held down the lighted button. It didn't change colors but the volume mounted. It worked through USB. I'll try the Firewire 800 tomorrow. I'm using it with an older Mac Book 13" It has a bunch of ports. Ethernet, Thunderbolt 2, USBs, firewire 800...

Side note: you do not need to be an ex-gov. to join Costco. I just got a membership online. Thanks, Cheryl.

this is from Costco. I'm not ex gov. or any other qualification, but my wife could join. This looks a good back up option. I'm ok for media drives for video editing. But, these USB 3.1 drives look good as a back up option. Thanks, SGilbert...

DeltaMac - I used a different adapter. It was unrecognizable. I don't believe this drive merits your time. You are a great help. I don't want to waste good tech advice on a bad device.

It is GUID partition map. Mac OS Extended journaled. I'm not using an enclosure. It's a USB port, power supply with multi-adapter.

I portioned the drive. Twice.

I have a used Dell Sata drive. It's a 4TB. It reads on Disk Utility as 1.8T. I formatted and ran first aid. It still reads as 1.8TB in size. Is there a way to make this drive a 4TB again?

I know it's an old thread, but this just helped me. I'm setting up a G5, 1.6ghz with 10.4. I'm going to put in a second new SATA drive and I'll let it ride!

I received the Radeon 9000. It worked without additional software. It has DVI and the old Apple Display Connector. While researching the card, I found an installer for a control panel. I installed it. It gave me the option to change the display mode for interlaced DVDs. It's working fine.
