Re: bootable firewire sata enclosure
Hi, I have this one, boots my dual 1.25 MDD: http://www.raidsonic.de/en/products/external-cases.php?we_objectID=6995 I put in a 500 GB SATA drive and I use the second partition as music library connected via USB to my netbook.

Re: bootable firewire sata enclosure
I used an OWC Firewire enclosure to boot a 533MHZ DA off of to bypass the 128GB limit. I'm pretty sure if you look on the OWC website they will tell you what is and isn't bootable. -Jonas -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

bootable firewire sata enclosure
Anyone here who've used a Firewire SATA enclosure that's bootable and care to send me the make and model. One with Ethernet would be sweet, but as long as it's bootable that should be fine.

I have an earlier version of the miniStack v2.5 by NewerTechnology with a 1.5GB Seagate SATA HD in it as sold by owcomputing.com (macsales / Otherworld Computing). It has FW and USB2 connectivity, and acts as a hub, too, when turned on. They have a number of other ones, also: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/ Don't think I've seen one with an ethernet connection ... but haven't been looking recently. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

All of LaCie's Quadra series drives that I've used are bootable.
