SCSI Accelerator Card

For maximum track count, the G4 requires the use of a qualified SCSI HBA card. Optional SCSI

following SCSI HBA card is qualified with the G4 models listed at the top of this page:

available in the Digidesign SCSI64 Kit) with the following requirements:

● ATTO ExpressPCI Firmware v1.4.4 or higher, available at:

www.digidesign.com/download/ptutil.html

● ATTO ExpressPro-Tools v2.3.2 (supplied on Pro Tools v5.3 installation CD-ROM) or
