Hi jleahy2,
One of my Apollos was a grey face Quad with both FW and TB. These interfaces were running FW800. On my PC (Windows 7 64bit), before I jumped into MacPro, I installed a PCIe card from Sontec that was providing 3 ports of FW800 - never had any problems with this setup. When I bought...
Hi Jiffyslot,
I went straight to upgrade BIOS on the MB to F7 so didn't even try F5 (I started with a full Win10 install which allowed me to run the Gigabyte tools directly from windows). I can tell you that booting times in OS X are reasonably good and comparable to my MacPro.
Performance wise...
Hi Yoshisakan,
I run a small recording studio business and TB was a must in my build as all my audio cards are UAD Apollos (Apollo 8 grey quad + Apollo 16 Black Quad + Apollo 8P Black Quad + Satellite Octo) all TB connected. Also my SSD external disks are TB based.
TB was the only option for...
Hey Jiffyslot,
First of all, thanks for your comments and suggestions!
Last night I got “lucky”... I now have a dual boot system fully working in Win10 and Mac OS X (High-Sierra 10.13).
It turns out that I bought the Alpine Ridge card in a rush (bad thing if you’re to build an Hackintosh...)...
Hi Jiffyslot,
were you able to have it working under OSX?
I have rev 1.0 GC Alpine Ridge Thunderbolt card with FW 20. I tried to update FW but had no success to load FWver 21 - it tells me that the HW version doesn't accept it.TB is working under Win10 - recognises HDD drives and an UAD...
Many thanks Jay!
I also understand that the M.2 NVMe SSD containing W10 has to be GPT formated. In this case will it be able to boot autonomously, that is, directly from bios selection boot drive without Clover or the USB Pen? Sorry if this is so basic...
Once again, thank you very much for...
HI Jay,
I'm currently preparing my first Hackintosh, so very little knowledge...
I intend to have two M.2 separate drives, one for OS X and the other for Win10.
I suppose I can install Win10 as if the computer was solely a Windows one. What I mean is that if I use BIOS to set the boot disk to...
