Knez: Do you run only OS9 on your MDD?

Nope, I dual boot Tiger and Mac OS 9.2.2 on it and always have. I got my 1.8ghz MDX and the 1.6ghz MDX when they where dirt cheap and I didn't think much of it. They where more or less plentiful back then and could be had for $50 or so plus shipping, and I always thought I'd be able to replace it if I'd ever damage or destroy anything.

With todays prices I wouldn't even consider experimenting like I did way back then, all in the name of science of course. I slapped the copper heatsink on it back in 2017 or so and it have worked wonders since then, so I haven't had a reason to mess with it.

Just to give it some context, so I don't stand out as a raving lunatic

I have a question about this module.

I bought it already installed in a MDD with a 167MHz bus. In the attached manual, it only talks about this switch when it is installed in Xserve. Specifically, it lowers it in the model with a 167MHz bus.

On my computer it is up. What is it for? How should I leave it? It works at the same speed in both positions.

From the Encore/MDX manual:





So I think it's safe to assume that they don't do anything on a MDD. I tried changing mine and they do nothing (as mentioned).
