Greetings all,
I need some help remembering - a trip down memory lane.
I find myself in an unplanned need to access six IBM SCSI-Ultra 320
drives (with SCA interface, so I know an adapter from 68-pin cable to
SCA is most likely involved). I seem to recall that I had such a card
from either Adaptec

Of course, having to take apart the G5 (not as bad a project as I
thought), that gave me a chance to
Thank you for the response, MJoe.
I located the correct allen wrench and was able to do as you
indicated. Turns out there are eight of the screws (4 per CPU) though
the instructions referred to only 6, but all came apart with
surprising ease once the CPUs came off (and they were pretty easy too
onc

allen-wrench type screws and then lift straight up?
2) Anyone know what size allen wrench to use - I'll have to go get one for
the job.
Thanks much,

Okay, a while ago I received great advice from some colleagues here
regarding wireless cards and a G5 with a PCI-E slot compatibility.
After doing some homework, I purchased one of those mini PCI_E
adapters and then a PCI-E wireless card to fit into it.
