The speed of the USB card wouldn't be the issue. The processor is
probably too slow to play a DVD or stream media
Hal, Vicki, and others,
I'm glad to hear that there *was* a PC card linked drive that worked
for booting your Pismo. MCE still sells a nice expansion bay enclosure
that is bootable, too. Know, however, that the DN-Boy and MacAlly
model CA-250MA are NOT bootable for the Pismo, and are not
Listers,
So. I decided to try out the pretty USB 2.5 drive enclosure model
that computergeeks.com have had on sale recently, the VE-009NHD. It's
made by V-link (www.v-link.com.cn), comes with a USB cable, floppy disk
of windows drivers, and some screws. It's a USB 1.1 enclosure, not USB
2,
I expect it would be nice if I included the link to the cases I was talking
about which ARE NOT the VE-009NHD cases mentioned before.

Ok. It said 250 in the original e-mail, but Ok.
I think the Sonnet lowers the bus speed to 66 MHz. But they did have DVD
players on 66 Mhz notebooks (early iBooks), so go for it. I would
recommend a CardBus DVD drive. It would be bus powered (less cables) and
probably a bit faster. Check
Thomas,
I believe the enclosure you're talking about is the Coolmax model
HD-227-U (www.coolmaxusa.com); the more recent version, HD-227-U2, is
currently for sale by Newegg.com, for $39. Newegg also sells the
similar firewire version, HD-227-FW, for $41. I had considered these
products, but

Hey Bruce, thanks for chiming in here.
I do find drivers offered by the geeks for the VE-007NHD, some of which
look like the very drivers I tried to install on the windoze machines,
without success. But this is the first time I've seen some drivers
being labeled for the Mac. There are two:
Hi I own a G3 233mhz M4753 that I bought off ebay. It's upgraded to
192mb ram and a 20gb Toshiba HD. I need a firewire port to do some video
editing.
(Don't look at me like that It works fine, as long as you don't view the
movies lol)
I bought a card and tried it, didden't work

well when ordering a brand new, not-yet-shipping product, it's
probably not wisest to order from a catalog reseller if timeliness is
important. why? because Apple ships to THEM, then they ship to YOU. the

When I boot from the install-cd (10.2) all goes well right up to the

I sucessfully use the VST FireWire CardBus Card (www.vstech.com) in my

Someone replied to one of my posts a while back that changing the hard

anything you screw up isn't covered under your warranty.
Can I get verification that this is true? I am confident I can do the

Thanks for this info. Very helpful. I'm not too concerned either way,
because if something were to go seriously wrong with my iBook and Apple
wouldn't cover it under the warranty, it would just give me an excuse
to get that 12 PowerBook I'd rather have anyway! I've never had a
