i have a wallstreet wel several wallstreets and unfortunaly no means of getting data from their hard drives other then a zip disk module ( but no zip disks ...go figure)

and i have been seeing several reasonable prices usb 2.0 cardbus cards from sitecom and trust

before i buy these do they work in a wallstreet under mac os X jaguar ?

or would i just be wasting my money ?

Can a wallstreet even use a cardbus (32bit) card? I thaught they just did 16 bit pcmcia cards.

Anyway whats wrong with the built in ethernet?

no in so far i know wallstreets can do cardbus

http://www.insanely-great.com/features/010823.html

the kanga has problems with cardbus and the 1400 and 2400 dont support it

im just wondering if these usb cards work under os X jaguar i cant get panther installed on them

usb 1.1 wil be just fine i dont need usb 2.0

the data has to go from a wallstreet to a pc and i never really did much with ethernet transfers

edit : then again it seems that link awnserd my question for me

no mention of mac os x though

jaguar doesnt reconigse the vendor but it reconigses the usb ports and uses them

For the record:

1400, 5300 and below: 16 bit PC Card/PCMCIA only

2400, 3400: 32 bit Cardbus capable but require a hardware hack

Kanga: As 3400 I think

Wallstreet and above: Cardbus

That happened to my Belkin USB PCI card for my Quicksilver.

for the record i wasnt that worried if a wallstreet could use cardbus

but if jaguar could use a cardbus card with usb

turns out it can so i am happy with that
