Don,
Not sure how that relates to the size of cache you can use in the 7200.
Two entirely different motherboards. I've tried a 1 MB cache in two
7200s, and in both cases I got no startup chime and no video signal to
the monitor. I'm pretty sure 512K is the largest cache the 7200 will
accept. BTW, OWC's "Garage Sale" of old inventory includes Sonnet 512K
cache DIMMs for $15.95:
