Hi guys,I'm a happy owner of a Power Mac G5 Dual Core 2,3Ghz and I'm thinking about replacing my old original HDD with an ssd drive. So, I've got some questions on my mind, that google cannot answer:
1. Everymac.com says "This model has "two open full-length four-lane PCI Express slots", "one open full-length eight-lane PCI Express slot", a 16-lane PCI Express slot that is occupied by the graphics card", so does this mean that, starting from the graphics card 16-lane, the one above is an 8-lane PCI-e slot, and two upper ones 4-lane? Or is the order slightly different?
2. Which interface should I choose for installing an ssd in Power Mac G5- sata or pci-e? Since both of them are rather archaic versions of each, which one would give me more advantage of switching to ssd?
Share your experience here, please, I'd like to know which path should I follow in this matter.
