Dagens fundering:
Idag kör jag en scanner (Screen Cezanne FJ-5000) med ett Adaptec 2940 SCSI kort på en gammal G3/400Mhz. OS 9. Stenålder alltså. Men fungerande...
Funderingar på en ny dubbelpropp G5 finns. Kommer jag att kunna använda min scanner med G5an och bara flytta SCSI-kortet?
Programvaran för scannern finns bara för OS9. Hur blir det då med drivrutiner för SCSI i classic?
Kort sagt; Kommer kalaset att lira under classic med G5an?
The Adaptec SCSI Card 2906 (AVA-2906) and Adaptec PowerDomain 2930 (APD-2930, APD-2930C, APD-2930CU, AHA-2930CU) are 5 V PCI cards and will not fit into the PCI or PCI-X slots in the Apple Power Mac G5 or Xserve G5 according to page 75 of Apple's Power Mac G5 Developer documentation. Due to this hardware incompatibility the 2906 and 2930 will not function in these system. Adaptec has no acceptable replacement at this time.
The Adaptec PowerDomain 29160N (APD-29160N), PowerDomain 29160 (APD-29160) and PowerDomain 39160 (APD-39160) are Universally keyed and will fit into either 5 V or 3.3 V PCI slots, so these cards will fit into PCI or PCI-X slot but have only been tested minimally in the Power Mac G5 and not at all in the Xserve G5. No new issues have been seen with the Power Mac G5.
The HotConnect 8945 (AHA-8945), PowerDomain 2940 (AHA-2940), PowerDomain 2940W (AHA-2940W), PowerDomain 2940UW (AHA-2940UW), PowerDomain 3940 (AHA-3940), PowerDomain 3940UW (AHA-3940UW) are not supported in any system since the Blue and White G3.
