Snow Leopard Incompatibility With Many eSATA Cards

[Peter Rosen]

Has anyone used the Lacie eSATA II card with OSX 10.6.7/Intel Mac?
My machine sees the card but it doesn’t see the installed driver.

Can’t tell if it’s an incompatibility or user error.

Don’t you have the CD that should come with the card?

I do. But I got the driver online from Lacie.

With the “SiI3132r5_1.7.2.0”, your Intel/SL should be working OK.
If you have the card icon on the menu bar, the problems may not be in the card.

I tried installing the driver again and now it works.

Okay, I just had the strangest experience… my past actually reached out and helped me in the future! I just got Premiere Pro and wanted to run in 64 bit mode. When I did, my LaCie drive disappeared! I started poking around for new drivers, and stumbled on this thread from over a year ago. I didn’t even remember posting, but there was my name, along with a link to the driver page I needed to get the updated 64 bit driver!

Now how often does THAT happen??

Are you denying that you crossed over into the other dimension or simply suggesting that you don’t remember?

Now apple really are trying to screw professional editors!!!

[Micheal Jones]

That’s not Apple screwing editors. That has more to do with the fact that the OS is now running a 64-bit kernel and such you need 64-bit drivers. Did you have the latest versions of the drivers installed?
