I picked up a Syba PCI Serial ATA Host Controller Card and SATA Power cable
from Fry's today. I removed my backup WD40 Hard Drive and replaced it with
a new Seagate 80 GB SATA drive in the top bay. I used the jumper cable
provided by Syba to connect the PCI card to the new SATA drive. I then used
the SATA Power cable to get the power from the G4 ribbon cable to the new
drive.
Fired up the G4 and I can only find my primary drive using the Disk
Utility.app. Did the profiler and Any suggestions on how I wake up the
SATA drive? Surely someone has been able to get one of the newer SATA
drives to work in a G4
