| Why does my Maci take so long to boot when the Qio is attached?
| Jul-31-13 |
| It is normal for the Mac to take a long time to boot (as long as 10 minutes) the first time after a Qio is attached. All the new drivers need to be discovered and the kernal caches built. It is important to let this initialization process complete without interruption.
However, in some instances, the Mac takes a long time for subsequent boots as well. If this occurs, run the Qio System Uninstaller and rerun the Qio System Installer. This should clear the problem. |

| With a Qio connected, my Mac Pro kernel panics when I shut down after using Avid Media Composer. | Jul-31-13 |
| Avid Media Composer 4.05 is not compatible with the Sony SxS driver. Please seek support from Avid and/or Sony. |

| I'm getting a OS X kernel panic when I remove an SxS card from the Qio connected to a tower Mac Pro that also has a video capture card installed. | Oct-31-14 |
| If you have a Mac Pro model 1,1, put the video capture card (such as AJA Kona or Black Magic DeckLink card) in Mac Pro PCIe slot 3 and the Qio bus interface card in PCIe slot 2 to fix this issue. If you have a different model of Mac Pro, the problem occurs only in one of Qio's SxS slots, so use only the other SxS slot. Sonnet and Sony are working to address this issue. |

| Why is the Panasonic OS X P2 driver not compatible with 64-bit mode, while the Sony SxS driver, CF driver and SATA drivers are compatible with 64-bit mode? | Oct-31-14 |
| This issue is now resolved. The Panasonic P2 driver included with Qio software version 1.2.3 and later is 64-bit compatible. Installing Qio 1.3.2 or later adds P2 support to systems running OS X in 64-bit mode, including Mavericks (10.9) and Yosemite (10.10)

| Do Qio and Qio CF4 support UDMA 7 CompactFlash cards? | May-06-13 |
| Yes, Qio and Qio CF4 support UDMA 7 CompactFlash cards in UDMA 6 mode.
Background: CompactFlash Revision 6.0 (November 2010) added UltraDMA Mode 7 (167 MB/s), which is up to 20% faster than UDMA 6 (133MB/sec). All UDMA 7 CompactFlash cards are compatible with UDMA 6 cameras and readers.
The Qio's CompactFlash slots can be read concurrently. The Qio can read the fastest CF cards at up to 133MB/s each and a total aggregate of 200MB/s (two cards).
The Qio CF4 can read all four CompactFlash slots concurrently. When connected to a desktop machine, the maximum aggregate read speed is 133MB/sec (one card), 266MB/sec (two cards), 400MB/sec (three or four cards). |

| I connected a Red Station media reader to the eSATA ports, but the media would not mount. How do I mount the media? | May-06-13 |
| Mac OS 10.7.5 will not mount FAT32 volumes connected to the eSATA ports of this device. (FAT32 volumes mount fine in 10.6.8 and in 10.8.2 and later.)
As a workaround, you can manually mount volumes with the following procedure:
1) Open terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
2) Run the following command:
diskutil list
Look for the target volume in the IDENTIFIER column. The volume will have a name like disk4s2.
3) Create a mount point by using the following terminal command:
mkdir /Volumes/myvolume
Note: myvolume is the name of the mount point you will create and must be unique - for example, you cannot mkdir /Volumes/FAT if a volume named FAT is already mounted.
4) Mount the target volume with the command:
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk4s2 /Volumes/myvolume
Note: disk4s2 is the from the IDENTIFIER column from step 2. myvolume is the unique name you chose in step 3.
The volume should now be mounted and is available for use. The volume must also be unmounted through terminal - finder will not be able to unmount the volume.
The command to unmount the volume is:
sudo umount /Volumes/myvolume
where myvolume is the mount point you created in step 3. |
