scatman Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I have an silcon image 0680 raid card / ide card . I couldn't find any information about this forum. Anyone tried? thanks a lot. Not with an silicon image controller. I tried it with an nvidia4 onboad sata-raid, but this wasn't working. Unfortunately I am not able to tell the nvidia-controller to work as in an ide-mode which is possible for many intel-sata-raid-controllers.

psychonic Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Scatman, can you please clarify? Are you saying that an onboard sata controller with silicon image chip did not work? The original post and I have an ide si card, not sata, and it's pci, not onboard. Does anyone have confirmation of this working or not? I still have a few days until i have os x to try for myself.

I also have a Silicon Image 0680 PCI card and the big problem is that OS X don't see it. I can boot Xp, even Ubuntu Linux, but NO OS X!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkwok Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 HIGHPOINT TECHNOLOGY has some PCIE and PCI SATA raid controller that are suppose to be Mac compatible. I haven't try it myself, so can't say for certain, but it's worth a shot. I will try to get one tomorrow and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyJAT Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 The Silicon Image 0680 is a PCI ATA/IDE Controller. Not an sata. I too have one of these and would really like to have it working in OS X. Any ideas out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I have an silcon image 0680 raid card / ide card . I couldn't find any information about this forum. Anyone tried? thanks a lot. You can visit the Sillicon Image site and see which ones have drivers for Mac OS. I doubt that third party IDE cards could have drivers, but some SATA cards does.

Rammjet Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 The SATA PCI card with Silicon Image support has a link in the Misc link in my signature. Go to the SATA section. Don't know of any PATA PCI cards with support. BTW, both SATA and PATA are technically IDE. That is why the PATA (Parallel ATA) acronym was born.

icehacker Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 hey guys i too have the same sli680 pci card i just wanted to know if some other card drivers with some mod would work thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtefar Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Well, since your new in the forum I can tell you this; if Rammjet doesn't know there probably is no reported successes for this card. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu.Walker Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 The SiI-0680 controller only works in Linux 32/64 and Windows 32/64. Unless someone recodes a driver for it under OSX, we're outta luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecotopian Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I too have one of these cards. Go figure. So the question is - I want to replace it with one that is supported - I have a raid0 config for video editing and the drives are PATA - which IDE Raid cards are fully supported???
