Hi all
I have an opportunity to pick up a couple of UAD 1e express cards loaded
with a wack of additional plugs for an extremely good price...not a "too
good to be true" price but a really good price.
I was planning to put these two cards into a second machine which will also
house my Frontier Designs Dakota card which I use to link up with my Paris
rig.
Now as these UAD cards are PCIe and my Dakota is PCI mt question is are
there motherboards out there that have both types of slots and does anyone
have any recommendations for which to buy.
Of course the other option is to put these UAD cards in a magma expansion
chassis and run them off my Paris rig. PCI to PCIe if I'm not mistaken.
There are pros and con's to each scenario but as I'm looking to eventually
migrate away from Paris in the future putting the UAD cards in their own
smoking machine seems to be the way to go.
Anyway any thoughts on this would be really appreciated
