I installed it last night. So far, when booted up in OS9.2.2 [NOT in classic via OSX], the "wind tunnel" hasn't come on, and the "cycling fan" hasn't either. It stays on slightly, but it's constant, as opposed to the every 10-15 minuet cycling. I was running Utilities [Norton/DW] on my [23] volumes. The real test for me will be this afternoon, when I boot up DP3, push the CPU and SCSI drives, and do some recording. I'll post my results.
