Notes | ||||
Configuration• The use of graphic cards requiring two power connections (such as the optional Radeon HD 5870 for MacPro5,1) is not supported as the HDX card(s) require one power connection on the Mac Pro motherboard.
• HDX cards should never be installed in MacPro3,1 or earlier models.
Chassis• * Supported with up to three HDX cards or one HD Native card. Mojo and Nitris DX cards are not supported at this time. You can use the Avid DX Thunderbolt Adapter.
• ** Only the 1st generation EB7 chassis is supported with HDX at this time. Please see this article for information on how to tell the difference between the 1st and 2nd generation of EB7 chassis.
• *** The optional "blower" fan included with the EB3T has not been qualified but there are no known issues.
