4.0 out of 5 stars USB/Firewire PCI card for a Mac
This PCI card has worked well for me in both an old, but significantly upgraded, Mac Beige G3 MT and in a Mac Mirrored Drive Door G4. It has been fully compatible with Mac OS 9.2.2 (USB functions as version 1.1 in OS 9), Mac OS 10.3.9, and Mac OS 10.4.8.

This review is from: ADS Technologies DLX180 Dual Link PCI Card (Personal Computers)
This PCI card has worked well for me in both an old, but significantly upgraded, Mac Beige G3 MT and in a Mac Mirrored Drive Door G4. It has been fully compatible with Mac OS 9.2.2 (USB functions as version 1.1 in OS 9), Mac OS 10.3.9, and Mac OS 10.4.8.

There are "wake from sleep" issues with this card in Mac OS X. Mine occurred when I left an Epson Perfection 3590 Photo Scanner connected to the USB 2 port on the card. I found that by putting a USB 2 powered hub between the "always on" scanner and the USB 2 port on the card, my "wake from sleep" problems disappeared.

There are counterfeit versions of this card on the market, so be sure you get exactly what the picture of the DLX180 shows (i.e., 3-USB2 ports and 2-Firewire ports; all external, no internal ports).

Interface PCI.

According to the page which describes the item ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008NV18/ref=ox_ya_oh_product ) the specs read:
With one card, you add two FireWire ports and three Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports, so you can easily connect to the latest USB 2.0 & FireWire devices such as hard drives, DVD burners, DV camcorders, video capture devices, and much, much more!

* USB 1.1 backward compatible
* Package includes Dual Link PCI Adapter, User's Manual, Ulead VideoStudio 6 SE
* OS Compatibility - Windows 98SE, 2000, ME or XP; Mac OS 9+

According to the items package the system requirements are:

Mac OS X or later.

I ordered the item because my Mac OS is 9.1 working in a Power PC 603ev.


Can you help in exchanging this for the item I ordered?
