If the box has no internal fan, I'd be worried about heat. Such boxes are not designed to hold two devices (two loads, double the heat, etc). - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Using an existing FW 5.25 enclosure to hold 2 HDD
Is it possible to use an existing FW 5.25 enclosure to hold 2 HDD, I'll remove a CD ROM, and install 2 Hard drives, 1 master, and 1 slave , and replace a short ATA ribbon, with one with 2 HDD ends and 1 end for the Bridge board, and get 1 2disk splitter for powersupply. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
