G5Jam Express™
USER’S MANUAL
Revised September 26, 2006
Features
•
Compatibility –
G5Jam Express is the only G5Jam
product compatible with the new dual-core G5 Power
Macs.
•
Expands your storage options –
G5Jam Express
allows you to add two more drives inside your dual-core
G5, for a total of four drives inside. Video editors and
photographers will use G5Jam Express to RAID their new
drives in software for stunning mountable volume sizes
and read/write speeds (over 220MB/s!)
•
Easy to install –
It only takes minutes to install G5Jam
Express into a dual-core G5.
•
Cool design –
There's a lot of air flow in the dual-core
G5s, but we still all worry about heat - especially with
hard drives. G5Jam Express takes advantage of the
excellent airflow inside the dual-core G5. With the G5Jam
Express, there's plenty of cooling space for air circulation
between the new drives, and heat dissipates through the
mounting plate.
