C3000 Workstation: FX4 Graphics Card

[LG Porter]

I'm considering purchasing a used C3000 workstation that contains a FX4 graphics card as part of its configuration. I have a existing A4331 monitor that I'm using on my 715/100 workstation now. A) Will I be able to use the A4331 monitor with the FX4 card? B) Can the FX4 card be used with a PC monitor? C) The C3000 system has a 9GB internal disk installed; can it be upgraded to 18GB? What is the limit on the number of internal disks that can be installed in this system?

A. Yes, but you will need an EVC cable to bridge the gap between the FX4 interface and the A4331
cable. The part number of the EVC cable is 8120-6861 that sells for about 20 bucks.
B. Same as A
C. 18GB drives are A4998A, priced at around $250.00 and you can get 2 drives into the C3000
workstation.

Hope this helps
