The video card in your MDD is not great. If you can find a Radeon
9000Pro that was optional for the G4 MDD PowerMac, it would be better,
as it is faster and has twice the VRAM.
Not sure, but I think the SCSI controller card is already supported,
without the need for installing additional drivers. You could use it
to connect external hard drives, or ZIP optical drives, scanners, or
any other SCSI controlled external devices. Not many people using
SCSI devices anymore and to my knowledge, no one is making SCSI
devices any more, so it would probably be a very old device, or hard
drive that you would have to find.

Now I have a few questions:
1) I know I asked about video cards in the past but I cannot find
the thread nor can I find the cards in my G3 Smurf or my G4
Quicksilver.
How good is the card in my MDD?
Also, if anyone finds my old thread let me know. :)
2) What can I use my SCSI card for and do I need drivers? If so
where do I get them?
