A4000 upgrade advice
« on: September 01, 2006, 05:15:44 PM »
I've been checking out my options for upgrading my A4000/040 and it looks like my best bet is to get a Tower box with a Mediator.

Thing is, I also want to install a scandoubler, and given the lack of Zorro III ones, I'll probably try to get an internal DCE type since they seem to still be available for sale.

As far as I can tell, this clips on to the Lisa or Alice chip, but the Mediator daughterboard also appears to sit over the top of this part of the motherboard - I'm wondering whether having this thing clipped on would interfere with that in some way?

Also, they apparently generate a fair bit of heat - would this be a possible concern given the position of the Mediator?
