It works for me!. Solve disk problems. I dont try with sata disk, only ATA, but, before kext install,I cant see my second disk, ATA too (with Windows XP), and THEN, I can write and Read with no problem, and I have +40mb/s data transfer, before only 1mb/s (4 hours for installation 10.5.1 :
thank you! and sorry for my English. Zep, if you want, I can test rev2 for X200 and SB450.
