OWCs FireWire Products are Fully Compatible with Mac OS X 10.3.6

according to a note we received from OWC:

Just a quick note this morning to pass along Other World Computing's announcement that OWC FireWire solutions are 100 percent compatible with Apple OS 10.3.6, and don't require updates or fixes in order to maintain perfect functionality.

The cool OWC Elite Pro FireWire drive cases noted in our article on the Sonnet Tempo Bridge all use the Oxford 911 controller chip and we had no mounting problems with them after installing Mac OS X 10.3.6. However, we continue to have booting problems from time to time on drives set up as startup drives that required the use of Carbon Copy Cloner to overcome. Our experience is that the bootability problem is random and endemic to FireWire drives in general. [Bill Fox]
