Media 100 Conﬁgurations

9600 Media 100 Hardware

■ Vincent™, Vincent 601, P6000

■ HDRfx, E6000, E6001

■ DV600 (attached to P6000)

■ SD600 (attached to E6000/E6001)

9600 Slot Assignment Conﬁgurations

We used the following guidelines in constructing Media 100 xr conﬁgurations:

■ The P6000 card and the E6000 card must be next to each other since they are connected by an

over-the-top connector cable.

■ The P6000 and E6000 should be placed in slots D2 and E2, because it is in the lower, “cleaner”

PCI bus with less trafﬁc and is further from the heat of the CPU card.

■ The SCSI controller must be in the same PCI bus as the E6000/HDRfx card. Because the

E6000 contains RAM, the system uses that memory instead of going through the PCI bus to the

Mac memory. The system does direct memory transfers within the PCI bus, thus improving

performance. This recommendation is subject to change when other third party PCI cards are

used together in one computer, for example, the Effetto Pronto PCI card.

■ We recommend only one dual-channel SCSI. We do not recommend two dual-channel SCSI

cards in one computer.

We used the following guidelines in constructing Media 100 le-xs conﬁgurations:

■ P6000/Vincent in slot E2, because it is in the lower, “cleaner” PCI bus with less trafﬁc and is

further from the heat of the CPU card.

■ The graphics card in the same bus as the P6000 since it does direct access to the graphics card

for the Edit Suite subsampler

■ The SCSI card (or SSA and FC-AL) in a different bus than the P6000 (and E6001 with SD600,

if applicable), since both cards are demanding on PCI bus throughput and can cause bus

contention

■ Gaudi in the same PCI bus as the P6000 (slot D2). However, if you have a 9600/132 or

9600/150, you may have an earlier version of the PCI arbitrator chip and could run into

occasional “Bad Video frame” messages. If you do, place Gaudi in the other PCI bus (slot C1).
