4. If SeriTek/1V4 is not listed, shut down your Macintosh computer and try re-seating it in
the PCI slot by removing and reinserting it. Repeat steps 1 through 3. If the SeriTek/1V4
still doesn
’
t show up in the Apple System Profiler , try moving it to another PCI slot.

The transfer rate on my Power Macintosh 8500 seems less than the Serial ATA
specified maximum of 150Mbytes/sec.
Early Power Macintosh computers, typically built before the
“
beige G3
”
was available, have
limited hardware resources. These limited resources severely limit data transfer rates of
many storage technologies, including Serial ATA.

Does the SeriTek/1V4 work with all Power Macintosh computers?
No, SeriTek/1V4 only works with Power Macintosh computers with at least one PCI slot
available. If your system lacks PCI slots you cannot use SeriTek/1V4.

My older Parallel ATA hard drives and peripherals have jumper settings.
However I can
’
t find jumper settings on my new Serial ATA hard drive or
peripheral. How can I set it to Master or Slave; is there any way to set the
SCSI ID?
Serial ATA hard drives and peripherals are internally configured as Master drives. Only
one drive can be attached to each Serial ATA bus/connector. There is no need to change
settings on either the drive or the controller.

I have an old Parallel ATA drive which I am trying to use with a Parallel ATA to
Serial ATA converter, but it doesn
’
t seem to work.
Some older Parallel ATA drives do not comply with current ATA standards. Parallel ATA to
Serial ATA converters cannot recognize such drives.
