the following set of requirements.
Computer
The minimum system requirements for using the CRW6416SX drive are as
follows:
● Any fully PC/AT-compatible computer.
● A Pentium-class CPU running at 133MHz or faster. (200MHz or faster
recommended.)
n Macintosh users will require a 68040 or PowerPC CPU and at least 16MB of memory.
● OS: Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT4.0 with Service Pack 3/4/5.
n Macintosh users will require System 7.5.3 or above.
● A spare PCI slot for a SCSI card (if one hasn’t been installed yet).
● A SCSI card to connect SCSI devices (including the CRW6416SX) to your
computer. Make sure it has a half-pitch 50-pin D-sub external connector.
Yamaha recommends any of Adaptec’s AHA-2940-series cards (PCI slot).
n Many Apple Macintosh computers have built-in SCSI connectors. However, if your Macintosh
does not have a built-in SCSI connector, you will need to obtain a PCI bus SCSI adapter card.
(Yamaha recommends Adaptec’s PowerDomain 2930U card.)
n For details about how to install the SCSI adapter card, refer to the documentation that came with it.
