If it's the DayStar Turbo 040 it's even better than the Sonnet. The 040 card plugs into the slot right next to the power supply. The 040 card should have some L2 cache RAM on it. > As far as getting at that floppy, yes: just un screw > the shelf and > pull it out, plug the new floppy in and then put the > shelf back in. > Nothing to it!Just put the new floppy drive in > exactly as the old one > was, using the same segment of the cables so the > SCSI ID doesn't get > mixed up. You shouldn't have any trouble. To remove the floppy and hard drive bracket you first have to remove the power supply. There's a catch on the back of the bracket. Use a table knife to gently pry the catch forward then grab the side of the power supply (remove any card on the PDS next to it) and wiggle the power supply up and out. Now remove the screw holding the bracket down. Then gently pull the catch at the side of the bracket next to the case and push the bracket slightly to the rear and it will come out. The connectors on the SCSI cable have nothing to do with the SCSI ID numbers. Any device on the cable can have any ID# as long as no other devices have the same number. If you get thin enough drives, there is room to stack two in the IIci. ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
