OS X/RDUs/Formac


Recommended Posts

Some questions about Restrospect 5 on OS X. Will it have RDUs, as previous versions have? Is the hardware compatibility list on the website up-to-date with all devices supported by this release?

 

I've been waiting since the end of last year for support for my Formac CDRW drive, which apparently was being tested several months ago. I'd be interested to hear whether v5 supports this unit - the compatibility chart still says not :(

 

Thanks.

Yes, most likely. We will be likely be adding device support more frequently.

Yes.

At this time, there are no qualified Formac drives with Retrospect. We would certainly like to add support, but, as always, there's no way to know when, or even if a drive will be supported.

fair enough.

 

 

 

for the record, I have the 24x10x40 unit (not the 16x10x40 which is listed on your compatibility list as unqualified) and it works fine burning directly from the OS X Finder.
