  • What slot to put Kona SD in on a Dual G5 2.7

    Posted by Paul Harb on November 1, 2005 at 12:46 am

    Just about to pick one of these up and am using Kona SD, Atto UL4D with U160 SCSI Huge Array. Also have a SCSI card for DLT drive but5 forgot what the model number is….just wondering what slots to put the cards in to optimal operations?

    first, I hope you are mistaken about the Kona SD – you DID mean the Kona 2 – right? But if you DID mean the Kona SD – the Kona SD will go into Slot 2 or 3 and the UL4D will go into Slot 4. You will not get U320 performance with your older U160 HUGE Chassis (but you would love it if you owned a wonderful U320-RX, or even the single buss U320).

    You will be VERY HAPPY if you buy the Kona 2 for this system.

    Yep he would, but I think he already owns the Kona SD and is purchasing the new computer to install it into. So in that case, if the Kona SD is working for you, no need to upgrade unless HD is in your immediate future.
