This drive is defective and has no TRIM support, buy a Drive with a Marvell Controller or a Samsung

The drive is compatible with Macs. It is SATA 1 and SATA II compatible. It uses a Sandforce controller. If you have a 2008 era MacBook Pro with NVidia motherboard SATA chips, then you will need to set the drive to SATA II only mode with this firmware http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/SanDisk-Extreme-SSD/SanDisk-Extreme-SSD-Firmware-R211m-download-for-for-MacBook-and/td-p/285948

Roger, You driver is also known as IDE or EIDE or PATA. The Station only works with SATA drives.So the short answer is no, it is not.

Although I am not sure what speed [P]ATA drive I used the device functions without any issues. The [P]ATA should automatically use a compatible speed. ATA is synonymous with PATA after SATA was created.

The question is more of the interface than the OS. I was unable to use my unit as the SATA interface was incompatible. Check your hardware before your software.

This caddy only supports SATA. I have it installed on a DELL M65 Mobile Workstation. Works like a champ and is hot swappable.

The OWC drives are junk, they use outdated SandForce controllers and have serious reliability issues. Take a look at some reviews on macrumors and amazon.

I just received mine in the mail today and it appears that it is not Mac compatible. I have a MacBook Pro, not even one year old. The floppy is from an old Mac Performa. Still looking for something that will work.

I honestly do not know if this drive is Mac compatible. It was such a waste of money and a piece of garbage it hardly even worked for PC. What I can tell you is this drive: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008AJLPYS/ref=oh_details_o02_s01_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 IS Mac Compatible and works awesome on PC and Mac and Linux. Its a bit more money, but it really is worth it. Dont even bother with the one for your question, its not worth 1$.

The Asus web site provides no answer to either hard drive format compatibility or networking compatibility with ANY type of computer. That's what's holding me back. A couple of 1 TB drives formatted HFS+ and networked iMac and Macbook Pro laptop, and I refuse to take the plunge unless there's documentation somewhere. If you find it, please post!

backwards compatible with Msata II - yesbackwards compatible with msata I - most likely notsource: http://mydigitalssd.com/msata-ssd.phpupdate: in fact my laptop only handles SATA II and it works great with this msata SSD

Yes. The first bullet point in their description reads: * Support for standard 2.5 "and 3.5" SATA hard drives (SATA-I/II/III); Compatible Operating Systems with Windows 2000/ XP /Vista/ 7/ 8, Mac OS 9.1/10.8.4 or above; Backward compatible with USB 2.0 /1.1 connections

It supports all the way up to SATA III 6.0Gb/s, and I'm pretty sure SATA is backwards compatible (to SATA I and SATA II).

sorry for the long delay getting back to you. In my case, actually my son's iMac, it was much less than compatible. The performance with DISK UTILITY backup was very poor (15 times worse than expected) and it was not recognizable as a boot device. So, I can't provide a positive endorsement for the Seagate and iMac.

It supports the attachment of a SATA III device, but does not operate any faster than SATA II with either the SATA connection or the USB 3.0 connection.. Also be aware that the ejecting mechanism is not geared for ejecting SSDs, only HDDs are wide enough for the ejection arm to push it out. Anker customer support is VERY good though, very pleasant to deal with and eager to please. Their USB 3.0 Cable Connect kit (with an additional 12V power supply) does support UASP and SATA III.
