Like Tone mentioned, it would require modification, both floppy bays would likely be blocked by the vertical SIMMs.

You definitely want something with angled SIMM sockets. Even then - and especially with an '040 - you'll want to cut out part of the drive cage where the second floppy would sit, so there's room for mounting a heatsink/fan over the CPU.

I also agree with the above, the WarpEngine is a much better accelerator than an '040 MKII.

The 3k version is tight with no modifications, I have never installed a 4000 version in a 3000 but I would bet it would be an effort even beyond hacking the tray...

Importantly, I think only the 3k version had the CIA jumper wire so you can use the fast scsi II controller on board.  The SCSI controller is really nice I remember it being really fast...

The 3000 version maxed out at 64mb ram, where the 4000 version maxed at 128 mb.

I installed this well over 10 years ago, so I'm fuzzy on the details...

64 megs is plenty, but I dont think Im up to hacking away at my poor 3000 when she gets here, so I think I'll pass. Thanks though!

Unfortunately I've withdrawn my offer for the WarpEngine so unless anyone else snagged it, it should still be up for grabs.

A4000_Mad:  Sorry, I would have never thought a boxed CSMK2 060 would fall in my lap the day after making an offer on your WE. The deal was just too sweet to pass up.  :(
