Folks,
I have been using an OWC Acceslior (128gb) for a year and a half (moved from my 2007 mp to my 2012 mp). I needed more space and considered upgrading the memory and to the new board w/external data connectors. The cost was a little high and with the Black Friday specials abound I ended up ordering a Samsung Evo 250GB and an Apricorn pci-e card. That works like a champ. I decided to keep the OWC card as well. Here's where my problem arises. With both cards in the machine, it fails to boot (or at least takes a very very long time, which I didn't wait). It takes forever just to get the boot menu up (pressing the option key).
Each board works ok by itself, they just don't work together. I have even tried moving them around (I'll admit that I didn't try EVERY combination of the two in the three available slots).
Any ideas? I think I may just try to sell the OWC card and call it a day. Note that all 4 of my sata drive bays are occupied.
Thanks!
Rick
