However I don’t get as fast transfers as you so I’m thinking it must be the adapter but I’m pretty happy… Here is the benchmarks done with dd: I found your article back last year and I built my G4 Cube the same as you, with the same Kingston SSD and a similar PATA-SATA adapter. I then also installed OS 9 on to the second partition with no problems. Xbench is useful not only for comparing the relative. Fingers crossed I disconnected the Firewire drive and restarted and OS X duly booted without issue. Xbench was developed by Spiny Software to provide a comprehensive benchmarking solution for Mac OS X.

I partitioned it into two partitions, one for OS X and one for OS 9 which progressed without problems and then cloned the old installation back across onto the SSD. Learn step by step how to perform a Quality Assurance (QA) check with Xbench, step by step, by using the mouse or shortcuts. Now the moment of truth, would the combination of drive and adapter work with the Cube? I booted from the Firewire backup and launched Disk Utility and to my great delight the Kingston drive was listed. In the end the bracket was removed and tape was instead employed to hold the unit in place.

This is due to the offset caused by the SATA adapter. However no matter how many which ways I tried I couldn’t marry things up whilst the SSD was mounted in its 2.5″ to 3.5″ adapter bracket.

After much fiddling I was finally able to offer up the pins on the IDE side if the adapter to the IDE cable in the cube.

With 640 colors on screen with AGA (128 with OCS/ECS), this Frontend can autoscan your hard-drive to find all your whdload games or your. As anyone who has messed about inside a Cube knows the tolerances are pretty tight, with very little give in the cabling. X-bEnCh is an Amiga game launcher & More. These incorporate built in, OS independent ‘garbage collection’ thus hopefully ensuring the drive speed does not degrade too quickly during use.Īfter backing up my existing drive to a Firewire unit I pulled out the IBM HDD and set about trying to fit the SSD and attached interface inside the Cube. There are all sorts of issue with SSD drives and TRIM support which I won’t pretend to fully understand, but I do know that OS-X does not support TRIM and according to Anandtech that these V+ drives from Kingston sport the same interface as used by the SSD’s that Apple fits to the MacBook Air. In the end the best value drive I could find was a Kingston V+100 64 GB drive. The choice of SSD took a little longer given the myriad of options and prices available. I chose a Startech SATA adapter, purely because I’d had a good experience with the IDE to CF adapter that I’d used in my Wyse Terminal. I initially looked at IDE drives given the Cube’s standard interface, however it worked out considerably cheaper to buy an SATA SSD with an SATA to IDE adapter. This is something that I’ve wanted to try for a long time and whilst prices remain high in comparison to standard mechanical drives they are becoming a little more reasonable.

Zypper install xbench For 15.I like quiet systems, whenever possible I like to avoid fans and it therefore occurred to me that the Cube would be an ideal candidate for an SSD (solid state drive) upgrade given that it would draw less power, be quiet in operation, generate less heat and leave more space for air to circulate within the cube.
