Alex, > Huh?! Has Apple any new licensing deals we haven't heard of? I did pay for the OEM DVD, just much, much less the msrp of $129.99 USD. It was resold by someone in need of cash. I would never support the subversion of software or intellectual property rights. Openly. >In your instance, first you must make sure that your card supports LVD devices >-- you might damage either the devices or the card or both if it doesn't. The link attached ( http://www.welovemacs.com/grappler930u.html ),lists the description and software links for the card. It is new, and originally a $149.00 card. It seems that no one chooses to bother with SCSI anymore, and the supplier is just trying to deplete inventory. The software links to Orange Micro list a 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 updates. It is designed specifically for high speed LVD drives. Thanks again for your help. -- Wade A.
