Hi all, I was wondering if all Nubus cards are compatible with the DuoDock, I feel as if the Accelerator cards would not be, but would they damage the dock/duo?
I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to fit a fan, plus as long as it's not being used for long periods of time hate should not be a big concernI'd thought the Radius Rocket worked in the DuoDock? It's standard NuBus on a (bridged) 68030 bus? Other than power/cooling budget limitations, I can't think of any reason trying it out would break anything offhand. Not much airflow in that cubic for any accelerator I'd think.
I'm guessing the second NuBus slot could be used as an exhaust?Installing a fan with no intake/outflow in a box doesn't do much good. There are four tiny air intake slots above the slot covers, so there is some provision for airflow, maybe just enough? I'd check the docs for slot power rating and overall power requirements/provisions before experimenting. More power and cooling are the plans for my sanity challenged IIsi project.
I'd thought the Radius Rocket "worked" in the DuoDock? It's standard NuBus on a (bridged) 68030 bus. Other than power/cooling budget limitations, I can't think of any reason trying it out would break anything offhand. Not much airflow in that cubic for any accelerator I'd think.
Didn't think of the Rocket - assume stage II?
I can still see it struggling for power and potential incompatibility in a dockable Mac such as the DuoDock.
What would Disk 1 do?Now you've got me curios, I should fire up a Duo with Floppy/MicroDock just to see what happens when I insert Install Disk 1.
