Connecting Additional Peripherals
Genesis MP has the ability to grow and expand more than any other Mac based platform.
This chapter gives you instructions for connecting or installing the most common expan-
sion devices to your Genesis MP. If you want to install a peripheral that’s not covered in
this chapter, please consult the instructions that came with your piece of equipment.
Note: It’s important that your Genesis MP is turned off before you connect or install any
hardware devices.
Note: If you wish to add an expansion device to your Genesis MP, it must be compati-
ble with the unit. Please read the specifications that came with the product. Genesis
MP supports most products that are compatible with Apple’s Power Macintosh 7500,
8500 and 9500. If you are unsure of the product’s compatibility, contact the reseller or
product’s manufacturer.
