|
|
Ok so recently i used the adobe flash player 10.2 hybrid hack to install 10.2 on my xserve g5.
i am currently planing on doing another upgrade to my xserve my question is does anyone know where i can get the firewire 800 cable for the xserve g5 i need to find at least 2 of them.
i also wanted to run another mod around someone here who knows about hardware.
i have a free pci slot on my xserve instead of installing a usb hub and running off of the hub would a 4 port usb 2.0 card from lacie work better??
so i can expand my usb to 6 ports instead of just the two....
also has anyone tried firewire 800 yet???
is it stable or should i use my firewire 400 port instead????
or should i purchase a time machine capsule and upgrade the internal drive myself???
here are my system specs as of now.
(powerpc) Xserve g5 single processor 2.0 ghz
4 gig's of ram
500 gig hard drive
80 gig external drive
running 10.5 server unlimited license.
7.1 surround sound usb card
Kodak Easy Share Printer.
any input would be nice.... |

FW800 cables are available in every half-decent computer store. It's a standard component. _________________ Wojtek |
