Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this after reading reviews here which said the card could be used with Macs. But after getting the drivers from IOgear, via Silicon Image, I got an immediate kernel panic when attempting to access a connected drive.
I subsequently learned that it's a common problem. Reading further on the Apple forums and elsewhere, I find there's much debate about where the problem lies...could be the driver, the chipset in the connected drives, Leopard, etc. But the bottom line is that this card does not work reliably (or at all) with new MacBook Pros and Leopard.
If you're a Mac user, you'll want to look elsewhere.
