Hm, I see, an administrator has removed some posts and again has deleted important info. I really like to know why my post has been deleted, I was not harsh nor anything else. I just said you have to list at least some of the drives you have tested.
One could argue, that I want you to list your tested SATA-III drives to argument against you. Why not see it from the positive side (that I brought up in my previous post), when you name me like three models, I will be able to buy exactly these. If not I will buy just the one single model on this planet you have not tested, and then?
Anyway, how can one claim, that "every" and "modern" SATA-III drive work, that would mean that he had tested all or he had a viable technical explanation (like the way protocolls are send between controllers, etc.).
Now, please Everybody, DO NOT give the MODs/ADMINs new reasons to distroy the stream of conciousness of the thread by deleting important posts, that do have nothing to do with bad words you tell each other. IF ONE OF YOU USES BAD WORDS OR IS INSULTING TO ONE ANOTHER, I WILL SUFFER, because I will have to type the pure information I want to get across again. It is very nerve wrecking for me to write, because english is not my mother tongue. So make it easy for me, who just wants to discuss a topic, and you DieselFuelForLife just post your ideas on the topic and further more, please be more scientifically candid (i.e. name at least 3 models you tested and the Mac you tested them in). I have heard of someone, I actually know, and do have no reason to doubt, that he had to flash a new firmware to it (via PC) to make his SATA-III SSD work in his G5.
PS: Dear Admin, I know, it is probably not possible, but the next time please tell me what I have doen in just presenting info and I will not do that again in the future. Just deleting without telling, there is nowthing to learn for me. The only reaction will be (in the long run), that everytime someone starts flaming and I have nothing to do with it, I will get more and more lazy and will stop posting. Why should I post anything here, if my useful posts get deleted, because others have posted something bad?
! and why, Admin, did you delete the bad part in DieselFuelForLife's post and let the rest intact, but deleted my post completely??? I didn't even say something bad. (Maybe this is the reason, one favourite member does not post here anymore, because the wrongdoers get their posts corrected and the nice people giving information get their post deleted completely. My guess, is that the bad people report the nice posts to the admins and they delete them automatically without looking into the case.
PPS: does someone have my post still left in his email notifications and can send it to me or post the part with the technical information?
