6500 upgrade kit?

hi,

was reading in the forums. noticed someone mentioned that you can upgrade the 6500 quad ppro system to a quad xeon system?

i realize the chassis are identical..exterior wise atleast. what is involved in this upgrade?

thanks

There is a kit that has to be purchased - I'm not sure if this is still an option or not.

As far as the upgrade - everything has to be replaced. The only things that are the same for the most part are the power supplies and the chassis. Everything is stripped out and replaced.
