I have some questions about adding a cache card to a Mac IIci
running A/UX 2.0. The Mac IIci in question has 8 meg of RAM, 80
meg internal and 40 meg external hard drives. It will primarily
be a network database/mail server. In other words, no one will
be using Macish applications on the console on a regular basis.
The questions are:
1) Is it worth adding a cache card? Will it enhance the speed of
operation significantly for A/UX applications?
2) How hard is it to install? Do I just plug it in? Will I have
to run newconfig? Do I have to start hacking the kernel with a
hex binary editor? (Just kidding. :-)
3) Does anyone have any recommendations on a particular brand?
Shall I just buy Apple's?
Any info will be appreciated
