Hello,
I have been asked to resurrect four donated G5 computers.
(All are minus hard drive, optical drive, memory, graphics
card, IDE cable, and drive mounting screws).
June 2003 1.6 GHZ SP
June 2004 1.8 GHZ DP
June 2004 2.5 GHZ DP
Early 2005 2.7 GHZ DP
All are clean, otherwise complete, and look to be in good condition.
There is no evidence of any leaking.
Questions:
1. The June 2004 2,5 GHZ DP, and the Early 2005 2.7 GHZ DP, are liquid
cooled.
There are many stories about liquid cooled G5s leaking. What is the
consensus
about the liquid cooled G5s? Are they prone to leaking? Should they be
avoided?
Are there any precautions to take? Does leaving them running all the
time help?
2. Is there an inexpensive source, substitute, or work-around, for the
optical drive,
and hard drive, screws?
Thank you,
Bruce Sugarberg
