Hi, All, Hope someone can help. Been offered a Seagate SCSI drive, (ST373405LC), which the spec sheet says MUST only be connected to a LVD card. I presume HVD will blow it. I have a G3/300MT with an Apple OEM fast/wide SCSI card. System profiler reports:-
Card Type: scsi Card Name: Apple53C875Card Card Model NCR,875 Card ROM# Not available Card revision 4,120 Card vendor ID 1000 I believe these cards are ATTO Ecpress PCI cards. and ATTO's websites lists both LVD & HVD cards under Express. Does any Mac tech guru know exactly what the spec of the Apple OEM cards is, and will they support LVD drives without screwing them up? I desperately need to replace the two IBM DDRS-34560W 4.5Gb drives I have, as they're bulging at the seams. I have also put in a Quantum Fireball 4.3Gb (pulled from a G3DT) on the ATA bus. Would I be better off replacing the ATA drive with a 60Gb IDE drive, or am I better off sticking with the SCSI for speed? I use Photoshop & Bryce extensively. Thanks for looking, hope you can advise.
