Can you repair/replace the Firewire bus in a G4 Cube?
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.
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.
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.
Can you repair or replace the Firewire bus in a G4 Cube?
