Hi there: Two things. 1) I recently asked about expanding what the manual for my C500 calls the "Cache Memory Module" and what I think I have also heard referred to as the L2 module, from the installed 256 K to 1 MB. Someone replied that I could try to track down one or I could try to find the
"SuperMac Cache Doubler 80 or whatever it was called. It's a large module with 1MB that runs at twice motherboard speed (hence the "80"). It's inline, i.e. it goes on the ZIF socket and your CPU goes on the Cache Doubler card. If you get one note the jumpers on the card --- they should be configured for whichever speed your CPU is." Is this an either-or situation or do I need both? Is one better than the other? And where would I get them and how much might I expect to pay? OWC told me they didn't have them so maybe they're not available anymore? And is it worth doing any of this? And 2) I also recently asked about why a certain CD I have might not be readable sometimes but not others, and one response suggested I might need to get a new CD drive. Would that be an internal or external drive? And if internal, is that something I could replace myself? What would I be looking for and where? And again, around how much?
