Forgive me for my ignorance, but this will only fits the O3000 range ( Fuel, Tezro, O350 , etc.), correct? Just to be sure. Someone I know is planning on getting an Octane and might be very interested (although if it won't be an Octane2 , a V12 naturally would cease to be a possibility, if it was to begin with of course...)


I believe the Fuel V12 won't work in the Octane XIO slots. But I could be wrong...but think not!

Why is your friend not getting a Fuel? Faster memory, 2x faster SCSI, internal CDROM/DVDROM, faster single processor...quieter (Although that can be corrected!) Or does he want dual? Just curious...

You're right. The Fuel V12 also doesn't just "work" in Origin 3xxx or 350 - even with an XIO brick. You need a special (and unbelievably rare) InfinitePerformace V-Brick to use it with these systems.

So basically the Fuel V12 is for Fuel, and not much else.
