Mac OS X Now Supports USB 3.0 !

USB Official Logo

USB 3.0 is now supported in Mac OS X!  LaCie released drivers today for their new line of USB 3,0 PCI-E and ExpressCard controllers.  Download the drivers here.

The device identifies as USB Super-Speed Bus in System Profiler and IORegistryExplorer.  USB 2.0 devices are confirmed working on these USB 3.0 ports.  We haven't had a chance to test USB 3.0 devices.  Our initial testing was done on GA-H55N-USB3, GA-P55A-UD4P and the GA-X58A-UD3R.

We need more testers! Report your findings in the Razormacx86 Blog Comments below this post.

UPDATE:
LaCie's driver is working only on specific LaCie devices.  Luckily, we've been tipped off to a patched version of the kext, which enables any USB 3.0 device.  Available in the latest www.kexts.com . You can test speeds using Xbench, then target any drive plugged to the USB 3.0 ports.  Please post any stats in the Blog Comments!
