mboy Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Can I use the IO CREST SI-PEX40059 card (Marvell chipset 88SE9120) to connect an internal DVD drive to its SATA port on my hack? An ASM1061 chipset controller card did not work as apparently this card does not recognize ATAPI commands. Any advice ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your DVD is connect to the SATA port on the ASM1061 with that card its work We have also the 4 Channel 6-Port SATA 6Gb/S PCIe RAID Host Card Works great Monterey and Big Sur See DVDRAM GS40N connect to the SATA on the Vantec card Edited July 18, 2021 by chris1111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboy Posted July 18, 2021 Author Share Posted July 18, 2021 I am using the SY-PEX40039 card you mentioned. The eject button does not work. Roxio Toast Titanium crashes on start-up. Burn application causes the system to freeze after a DVD is inserted in the drive. I believe this is a know problem with this storage controller card. I was wondering if anyone has success with a Marvell chipset card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont have any issue with that card on my DVD the eject Button works good you have to copy on desktop /Sytem/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/ Eject.menue And double clic to see the Eject.menue on the bar What is the DVD Writer?

mboy Posted July 18, 2021 Author Share Posted July 18, 2021 the DVD writer is an LG HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GU90N drive. The eject button appears in the menu bar but doesn't open the drive. The DVD drive works in Windows 10 on this computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris1111 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 (edited) The best choice is 4 Channel 6-Port SATA 6Gb/S PCIe RAID Host Card also I use that one StarTech.com PEXSAT32 on Monterey on my Main System works also on Big Sur and lower macOS I no longer have SY-PEX40039 it to test it, I had it a long time ago and I think it worked well in Yosemite unless I got the wrong card, I had so many and currently I have three working well Edited July 18, 2021 by chris1111 I no longer have SY-PEX40039 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboy Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Would the IO CREST SI-PEX40059 card with a Marvell 88SE9120 work ? https://www.amazon.com/IO-Crest-SI-PEX40059-6Gbps-ATA133/dp/B00BI4Z4H6 I am hoping the Marvell chipset can recognize the ATAPI commands from my internal DVD drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
