I changed the PCI card to a different slot (4 to 3).
No result.

Changed the eSATA cable
No result.

PCI card is visable (slot 3, driver installed “YES”).
Serial ATA device is not visable in the tree.

Hmm, I’m wondering whats still left to check?!?
🙁

I just connected my Fantec Drive to my macbookpro via eSATA.
everything works fine. The drive is recognize as one 4TB drive.

So it seems it has something to do with the PCIe card form silicon.

I’ll wil change the card form slot 4 to slot 3 or 2. and see if it works.

The card is from Silicon (3132).
This was the ‘ driver’ I installed.

* SiI 3132 Mac OS X 10.6.x BASE (non-RAID) 7/14/2010 1.2.5.0

After installation I entered my password and reboot the MAC.
No result.

I also tried the RAID version.
* SiI 3132 Mac OS X 10.6.x SATARAID5 7/14/2010 1.7.5.0
THat results in a raid manager program, but it still doesn’t find my eSATA disks.

I’m running OSX 10.6.5 on a MAC PRO system.

No, there wasn’t even a DVD or CD-rom in the package.
I also checked the website. From there I installed the newest driver.
But for MAc it’s a bit new to me. You can’t see if the driver is installed correctly.
