Trying to put USB 3.0 on a G5 PowerMac.


hello everybody.

resurrected old powermac (dual g5@2.0ghz) installing 4gb of ram (it wasn't dead, slow), , after adding hdd realized usb 2.0 ports in limitation data transfers, devised idea of adding usb 3.0 ports.

when opened case upgrade ram noticed existence of several pci slots on motherboard, available expansion, aren't they?

assuming , manage pci expansion card usb 3.0 ports, work on machine? mean, "leopard" detect them? far cards i've seen support windows (but marketing).

thanks,
joe.
 

i've seen few adapters around, wouldn't know them. google has lot of information that'd more helpful.
