Time to upgrade the 9 GB drives on my 7500. I have ordered a couple of 18 GB, 68 pin ultra 2 wide drives to replace the 9 gig'ers. I know I can use the 68 pin to 50 pin adapter and use the internal 10 MB/sec SCSI bus.
The question is can I use an ATTO UL 2D PCI LVD SCSI dual channel controller on these drives. From my limited research the drives have an Ultra 2 LVD/Ultra LVD wide interface which seems to meet the spec's on the ATTO controller? The vendor says it is compatible with legacy PCI Macs. Before I buy the ATTO are there any problems with this combination that I should know about? Computer spec's: 7500/512RAM/G3 466/1MB. Use: moderate graphics work, Photoshop/PageMaker/Quark/Illlustrator, output to color RIP and B/W laser printer Future plans include G4 upgrade and OS X Thanks --glen (digest mode) -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
