Default What is the correct PCI card slot order for a Quicksilver 933?

Hi all,

I'm in the process of moving my Pro Tools Mix system into a new Quicksilver G4/933. Does anyone know the correct order I should use for my PCI cards? The latest TDM installation guide doesn't seem to have any specific information regarding the 4-slot G4's.

Here is my hardware list. It's pretty basic:

Pro Tools Mix Core
Vintage DSP Farm

Grappler 940UW SCSI Card (not used with Pro Tools -- used only for my scanner and external CDRW drive)

I'm assuming the Mix Core would go in slot #2 (the AGP card is in slot #1), the DSP Farm into slot #3, and the SCSI Card into slot #4. This is how it worked in my G4/400.

Reading some of the previous posts there seems to be some debate about the correct slot order, so I thought I would verify it first.

Please help!

Thanks in advance,
Alan

-Yes, that should be fine. However, I'm not sure how your system will perform with the Grappler card installed (even if you aren't using it with Pro Tools). If you run into problems, that is the first item I would suggest removing from the system.
