After sporadic reports of data loss and corruption with FireWire 800 devices operating with the novel Mac OS X 10.3 "Panther" operating system, Apple Computer made an official press unloosen to suggest this problem has been traced to Oxford Semiconductor's 922 Firmware used by near all FireWire 800 devices, including the OWC Mercury Elite 800 series. While Oxford Semiconductor and Apple Computer disagree over what has led to this upshot (there is absolutely no upshot under any circumstance with OS 10.2.8 and earlier), Apple has confirmed that the upshot is limited to firmware v1.02 and prior. No OWC Mercury Elite FireWire 800 product has a firmware version lowly than v1.02, but it is our recommendation that you watch the enclosed link to our v1.05 firmware update page. There you will find the the instructions and software which will enable you to advance your OWC Mercury Elite 800 push to the latest v1.05 firmware version. Apple Computer, Inc. is working with Oxford Semiconductor to muddle this problem within OS X 10.3 Panther in a style that would not expect the later Oxford 922 firmware version, but we here at OWC are happy to render the firmware update information as an immediate and unconditioned solution regardless of what Apple and Oxford may do in the future.
