800mb Firewire woesPosted by lcheadle
I bought a 500gig G-Raid. Plugged into my G5 2.3dual via 800firewire. Doesn't work with FCP5. All video captured plays back choppy without audio. Everything works fine when I use a 400mb firewire connection. I successfully did audio stuff with Logic using the 800 connection to the G-Raid so it probably isn't a hardware problem. Is there a preference setting in FCP that could help me?
Thanks? btw my G-Raid is much noisier than a LaCie or MantaRay. What's up with that?
ok, several things, your jumping around on one foot, you gotta pay atention to the othe
call gtech first, find out their opinion, as stated their have been problems also do you hav another fw800 drive? can u borrow one? test it out see if there are any problems (even daisy chain with teh gtech at the far end of the mac) and see if it is just the gtech, or the cable, if there are still problems, call melrose, and request a new firewire card, and see if A yu can replace it yourself, or B, if they can be ready or you so you can be in and out in a day or so. these mac shops are all about scedualing youself properly.

Hey Aaron-
I'm a step, or rather, a hop or two ahead of you. I do have a second fw800 drive and it behaved exactly the same. I've also tested the G-Raid on my buddy's G5... no problems. All my cables test okay. I bit the bullet and took my G5 to Melrose Mac for service yesterday and they were great. btw... Bomb It looks cool! You need any camera people? Thanks
