      Early Hitachi Serial ATA hard drives are incompatible with the SeriTek/1V4 Host Adapter. This is due to a seldom-used Serial ATA feature called SSC, which is enabled on these hard drives. The SeriTek/1V4 does not support this feature. Newer model Hitachi Serial ATA hard drives should be compatible with SeriTek/1V4.

      At this time, the following Hitachi Deskstar hard drives have the SSC feature disabled, and are compatible with the SeriTek/1V4 host adapter:

      • Model 7K400 (400GB) - Part Numbers 0A30984 and 0A30985
      • Model 7K250 (250GB) - Part Number 0A30340
      • Model 7K250 (160GB) - Part Number 0A30339
      • Model 7K250 (120GB) - Part Number 0A30338
      • Model 7K250 (80GB) - Part Number 0A30337
      • All of the Hitachi SATA drives offered by OWC comply with this SSC specification.

      Other Serial ATA hard drives from manufacturers such as Maxtor, Seagate, and Western Digital do not have this feature enabled by default and are therefore compatible.

    Advanced Data Features

    • Onboard Flash ROM allows easy upgrades to the latest firmware
    • Fully compliant with Serial ATA 1.0a specification
    • Bus Mastering off-loads data I/O handling from CPU
    • Complete 32-bit CRC error checking, for all bits transmitted (command, data, and status), offers enhanced data protection for high-speed Serial ATA drives
    • Dual independent data channels allows for separate device timings
    • Automatically identifies and configures drive types1
