I just recently got the new 24" iMac with a 500gb HD
doing alot of video editing i chew threw alot of HD space, at the moment i have a 300gb sata, a 200gb ide, a 80gb ide and a 40gb ide.
i used to use these hard drives on a windows machine and have since formated all but the 200gb into mac osx journled.
to access these drives i have 4 "ide/sata to usb" cables conected to a usb hub
my problem is i have run into alot of trouble getting this setup to work
and the 300gb drive disconects during the middle of a transfer (of 50gb at a time which is SO FRUSTRATING!!!) even when it is the only drive conected (ie no usb hub used)
could anyone shed some light on these issues for me
would apreciate it
