Using Striped Drives on Mac OS X and Mac OS 9.x Systems
The Avid editing software automatically recognizes drives that were striped on Mac OS 9.x. You should be able to use these drives to edit and play video. However, if you move a drive that was striped on a Mac OS X system back to Mac OS 9.x, you cannot play video from the drives on MacáOS 9.x. If necessary, you can set up your Mac OS 9.x system so that it recognizes the drives. You can then copy media files from the drive to your MacáOS 9.x drives.
To set up a Mac OS 9.x system to recognize drives that were striped
on a Mac OS X system:
| 1. | |
Navigate to the following folder:
|
Applications/Avid Goodies/OS 9/System Folder/Extensions
| 2. | |
Copy the file ~~ExpressStripe_OS9_Enablr to the Extensions folder
on your Mac OS 9 system.
|
| 3. | |
Restart the Mac OS 9 system.
|
The system is now able to recognize the striped drives. You can use the drives to copy media onto your Mac OS 9 drives.
 |
|
Do not run a Mac OS 9 Avid editing application on the same system as
a Mac OS X Avid editing system. There might be conflicts between the
system files used by the two applications.
