G4 questions...
« on: 31 August 2003, 05:50 »
Which G4 models support 4 internal HDs? My quicksilver 867 only has two accounted for, but I know that they added 4 bays at some point, and I thought they had more than that on the old graphite cases. Is it a case of mounting the two, then putting two more in another location?
Go the fuck ~

Why yes, the gigabite of the non-linear megacylinder is rather unsubstantial next to the more powerful Ragga-maxon chip. In fact, of you took a nerga 89-c deskboard motortron and hooked it to a new mainboard, ill bet it would be twice as powerful.

Macman...

I always thought that utilizing the trans-vecular phased-tetryon magiculator, you could increase tesla throughput to the megaceride coils, therefore doubling the flow of power to the testicular filter.

But if what you say is true, using a Ragga-maxon chip on the nerga 89-c deskboard, I could... in theory QUADRUPLE the tesla output, and fully saturate the megaceride coils and upgrade the testicular filter!!

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT!?!
