I have a second 40GB HD that is not SATA but is IDE ATA, I connected this device to my mobo as slave but Leopard does not read that I have a second HD, I didn't see any device, does iATKOS have drivers for Jmicron IDE? I am thinking to use this HD for Time Machine. Thanks guys.

If it's a new or bare drive, that might be the problem. I had a similar experience with Leopard, but after I formatted it with FAT32 (from within Windows XP), Leo was able to see it. I'm very new at this myself, but I would assume that once you boot into Leo, you could format the drive in a Mac format.

put your hardrive to an enclosure with firewire, works fine for my Time Machine
