I am in the process of trying to add a 6502 RAID card to a model 400-9402. The current box has no expansion chassis attached and had room for 2 SPD cards. In the machine there is an Ethernet card and a 6141 ASCII controller card. I do not use the ASCII controller anymore so my plan was to replace the 6141 with the 6502. The machine also has 4 drives in it, 2 6607s and 2 6606s. My plan (I am currently doing it as I write) is to unload my data, swap the 2 6606s for 6607s and reload my data. So far so good. My question is this: Can I use the 6502 card in this AS400? The reason I ask is because the 6141 card I removed only had one connector to connect the card to the system backplane, however the 6502 has 2 connectors. If I look in the slot, there is clearly only one place for a connection to be made. Is there something else I need to use the 6502? A different bus or something? Do I have to have an expansion cabinet bolted to this machine? Any info is greatly appreciated. Regards, cjg Carl J.
