I know under os9 that the dual is not much if any fast than a single cpu but under os x a dual 500 mhz would be like a single 700 mhz please confirm. ie my spare cube is complete disassembled with kernal panics over heating cpu i think michael

I am upgrading my wife' s quicksilver with a sonnet sata controller and 1 Tbyte drive. We must have room for all those pictures. all the picture end up in her user folder which is on the startup drive ie the new drive should I partition it or not. Having multiple drives does not work with her...

I was under the impression that usb 2 will not run under os 9.x so you are stuck with usb 1.1 speeds. I do own a sonnet tempo 133 card so this is starting to sound like the best option. I could strip out all the scsi drives and go ide. I also have a fw external dvd dl inclosure but no fw...

I agree with installing sata why bother! in other posts it was suggested that to maximize the speed of the 7600 to install atto ul2s controller for faster scsi. I do own a sonnet ide 133 card that could be installed but it would be slower see other discussion...

Now that the 7600 is ripping mp3 and surfing the wed I feel the need for a dvd burner any suggestions? I will soon get my atto ul2s installed I would like to pull the internal cd out and put dvd burner in. I have been searching and it appears this may not be possible with out switching to ide...

the hd were an apple 20G and and an owc 80 G IBM the OWC drive stated it would work with the cube what about the dc to dc board in the cube could it be bad? michael

I have a mac cube that ran fine for about a year and the hd failed so I put a drive I pulled. this drive worked for a couple of months and it started having problems it would spool up the wind down to a stop, start stop over and over it was about 2 sec up and 2 sec down. so i ordered a new...

well I know the master slave jumpers are ok. the computer worker great for several weeks after the new hd. I reformateded and installed 10.4 clean and then ran tech tools to check everything it could. I will pull the drive and try to boot from the cd.

I had a bad hd and replaced it 2 weeks ago bad sectors. now it has stopped starting up 1 it chimes 2 i get a gray screen no pin wheel 3 nothing happens. i have tried booting off tech tools cd but no luck. same as above this issue happened 2 times and the machine sat for some time and...
