Does anyone have usb storage working? I have a SSE2 System and everything Works But the usb thumb drive and Hard disk that I have. and it would be great to be able to use Both (Student and it's tiring to Email my work back and forth to school to put on Media to turn in.)

I've got a problem with any type of USB mass storage device myself. Thumb drives, external hard drives, and digital cameras all cause my system to crash. What's odd is my laptop's integrated card reader works perfectly with all types of memory cards, and USB devices such as my cell phone (using it as a modem) and my mouse work perfectly.

I couldn't get my iPod to work on mine, but didn't ever have anything else to test it with (firewire didn't work either as I had an unsupported TI 1394 chipset). I never figured that one out...perhaps it's limited to non intel chipsets? You're running an nVidia, I had an ATi...perhaps it's that...

I've gotten several makes of USB sticks to work without problem (LexMark 2Gb and a couple of different SanDisk sticks). I have a Seagate 160Gb USB external drive that I've split into two HFS+ partitions that work really well as data drives, but I can't boot from them (even though USB booting is enabled in my BIOS). My Camera works (Nikon D70) as a USB drive, and I have both an HP Scanner and a HP Photosmart 8450 printer hooked up to USB - all working.

Remember it is not a release, is a Developer edition so expect no full of anything.

Thanks for the correction. :( For a developer's edition/build it isnt that bad. I'm surprised though that the Developer's edition/build isnt time limited like the OS X Public Beta that was released around 5 years ago.

 

Have you kind folks tried connecting a PC to a Mac via IP Firewire networking or Mac as target disk to a PC?

Update: Now that I've upgraded to 10.4.3, I have full USB support for all devices.

I can't get to work a Sandisk's Sansa :( but everything else i have tried work smoothly :) , BTW someone knows how to make a HP Deskjet 1310 work

 

 

Victor;

 

I don't have a DeskJet 1310, but I can tell you that for me, upgrading to 8f1111 enabled me to use both an HP 8450 Photoprinter (networked) and a ScanJet 4890 (USB) whereas I couldn't even see them before... Seems like the HP drivers were seriously updated...
