| What are the Slots/Ports on the Quadra 650 Board for? | |
| Posted by: chrisrueckert on 2024-02-03 13:38:54 Just got my first Q650. Does anyone know what the ports marked in yellow are for?  | |

Note that you need to use a SIMM module that is explicitly compatible with Quadras, such as the original "Lobos boards", Caymac's 4MB SIMM, or my own ISP-SIMM. Otherwise you may damage either the SIMM and/or the ROMs on your logic board. | |
