MDE, then what card for PCI-X on Win XP? Can you help there?
BTW, I have a regular PCI Firewire 800 card (bought it from Lacie when I bought the external harddrive) Trouble is, I'm afraid to use it in one of the PCI-X slots. I had a Dell dual 3.6 Xeon machine burn up right after installing...
Looks fine. So it will go in one of the PCI-X slots, right??
Sorry so noobie, just don't see where it says that. A normal PCI card will not go in a PCI-X slot right???
Well, it looks like this is my configuration.
one PCI Express x16 graphics slot
one PCI Express x4 slot don't know what its for
one PCI 2.2 slot (5v, 32 bit) this is the old kind right? It's blocked by the graphics card and is not usable.
3 PCI-X slots This is where I...
Okay, thank you for that. The cards transfer at 80x which they claim is 20 mbs so no effect there. USB 2 is 32 mbs right?? Why not an increase in speed at the harddrive though? It is a Lacie and Firewire 800 capable, so shouldn't the transfer rates improve? (by nearly double?)
llRC ...
Hope someone can help me out. I'm more user than builder.. Need a PCI X 1394b Firewire 800 card for my Xeon machine to hopefully improve transfer rates of Compact Flash cards and an external harddrive. My machine does not have a normal PCI slot.
Anyone know a good reliable brand?
TIA...
