I have this card In at least 10 ATV 1st Gen with XBMC using Crystalbuntu software and much more without card , and after's years of using both ways I fail to see any benefit in this card , The units still work fine with card but compare to same install...

I understand technically what this card is doing. In my experience of only installing it on 1 ATV, I thought it made my 1080 content run a bit smoother, less buffering and freezing. I don't think it does anything else but just help encode video.

You will lose memory bandwidth performance, as the card will only be running at x1 slot bandwidth speed. It will definitely work, but you'll have to find out how much performance reduction you'll get running the card in x1 mode vs x16.

I think they do. Some games do but probably not all. I have had zero issues with this card producing ultra settings on every gane. I never had the 2 gig one tho so its hard to compare.

This is a piece of junk. Stay away from it if you are planning to use it for only XBMC. Go back and find yourself a 2nd Gen Apple TV.

I use regular SDHC cards. I downloaded a firmware update and the Wolverine works fine with these new cards. G. Sloman

Yes, it works like a charm. I have it installed on a Windows 7 64-bit system. It`s plug and play windows will automatically find the drivers needed. Also works great with XBMC.

Yes, It did for me. I'm shooting with 4GB to burn to 4GB Disks for bac-up. For the D1x this was a big card, back when cards were MB. Have fun.

The only info I had to go on in my install was to download the driver for this card..save it..remove the older card n delete in device manager, install the bigfoot card then install the down loaded driver for it..mine works great..

I'm not sure but I really don't think the card makes any difference. If you're referring to the SD card it is just a data storage device and would have nothing to do with the functionality of the unit.Hope that helps

I've been using pq1 16gb SDHC class 6 cards. Most work well. Now and then a card won't play in my X-fi but will play in my old regular Zen.You can move files to the card just like any other thumb drive. However, be aware that not all file types will play from the SDHC cards. Video downloaded from Itunes or Amazon Unbox cannot be played from the SDHC cards at all.

Just hooked up to a Pioneer AVH-X2700BS, and it works perfectly. Always check reviews for the note that says "Verified Purchase". If that's not there, then they are not writing their review based on any actual experience with the product.

Yes, XBMC installs and runs fine in general. There are many different sub builds of XBMC available, however. Codec support for certain video playback is hit or miss. Some builds work exceptionally well , and some do not work as well.

I tried a 64G one, Up from the original 32G and let it record consistently for two days and it still loops at about 6Hrs or 25G worth of video/audio. I re-formatted the card and will test again but am already disappointed that it will not allow a 64G from what it has already done.

I am using two of the cards in a Mac Pro 2010. I powered them off of the SATA power port for drive sled 4 and mounted the drive that was in sled 4 in the optical bay. Trying to use optical bay power is pretty much impossible since Apple left no pathway to get the cable down from optical to where the cards would sit without taking apart the whole machine.

yes of course , no issues there The BIG feature where this Belkin unit works where others does not is that this is the only unit out of a dozen I tried that will work with OS-X TIGER Server (old OS version ) and this Belkin seems to need no additional driver support to work , idea when using an OLD Mac server with a conventional VGA+PS2 KVM switcher...Due to this reason , it's the only type I buy now (I have over a dozen of them, never had a failure, have had lots of other "cheap" units fail and the hassle does NOT justify a few $ save up-front IMO....)

Yes it would be worth it if their support was not so bad. I have it running on 2 other computers no problem, then I had a problem, and the email support is a joke, hours waiting for a reply, then it was usually wrong. It allows you to take the raid to any computer if something dies in the "original computer" But I have that card and can not make it work. It is a shame! The on board Raid is ok but slow and if you have to move the drives, the MB must have the same version and firmware or else it can cause drama. So make sure of the return process on this card.

Yes, I use this card on my box with Ubuntu linux. Setup was a breeze. There were no problems at all.
