About NuBus slots and car

ds:

The two NuBus slots in the

Duo Dock are stack

ed vertically

. The slots are identical, so you

can install your card in either one. If you install your card in

the upper slot (which is the lower slot when the dock is right

side up), you’ll have to remove it and reinstall it if you want to

add a second card later

.

NuBus cards come in different shapes and sizes. All properly

designed cards will fit into the Duo Dock. Y

ou may find it

easier to install a lar

ge card in the upper slot rather than the

lower one.
