- The only thing you need to upgrade are the kickroms as the 1.4 roms do
- not support the '040. Go buy some cheap 2.04 roms or (preferable some
- 3.1 ones).
-
- You might get heat problems because of the old DMAC but you might be
- lucky aswell. If you don't have too many heavy heat-producing drives
- (like the old Seagate ones) I think it will work (no promises).
-
- You should be able to use any version of the A3640 rev 3.0 or higher.
-
- Besides that you just need to remove one jumper and move another.
