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.)

nMacintosh 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.

nMacintosh 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).

nMany 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.)

nFor details about how to install the SCSI adapter card, refer to the documentation that came with it.
