Vanhishikha Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 For some strange reason (I'm guessing your using a SATA/SATAII connection for your hdd's?) Mac doesn't pick up our hard-drives unless they are IDE, as that is what MAC uses 90% of the time. I tried to do this, and i was fiddling around for days/weeks. Sorry i couldn't of been more helpful.

Korrupted Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 @DeathAbyss: The filesystem doesn't make a difference whether the physical hard drive is seen or not. @Vanh: Macs have used SATA for a long time; it just depends on your disk chipset/controller whether or not it's supported/seen.
