Can you feasibly repair or replace the Firewire bus in a Power Mac G4 Cube?
My Cube’s Firewire bus burned out last year after I plugged in an Acer Firewire DVD drive. Now the ports convey neither data or charge.[br]
Looking at the ports, they look distinct from the rest of the I/O, and I’ve seen sale listings for discreet Firewire modules for other Power Mac G4s on eBay.[br]
My Cube still runs fine otherwise, and I can easily add new files simply by removing the SSD and plugging it into a different computer, but the dead Firewire ports make it much less practical.[br]
