I am also looking at mesa card for trying out EMC. The card I am looking at is,
5I25 + 7176 DAUGHTERCARD + CABLE PLUG-AND-GO KITS It will be installed onto an old P4 IBM Intellistation 6229, 2Ghz, 1GB ram, so I guess it's a 5125 Will it work? Will P4 be too slow? Just out of curiosity, where are the cards made? thanks, John On Sat, May 12, 2012 at 12:18 PM, Peter C.
