consolation Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'm putting together a hack to replace my ageing G4; but I find contradictory information on using SATA as boot drive for OSx86. My plan is to use an ASUS P5LD2-VM SE which is the same mobo as the ASUS P5LD2-VM in the HCL - but without the built in RAID. It uses a 945G chipset with the ICH7 controller. Since the system will only have one HD, I need to know if I will be able to get away with a SATA drive? Help much appreciate, TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallstreet Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'm booting to SATA on a P5LD2-VM 2.0 - Same board, two more DIMM slots. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
