Tim, The biggest issue is that you will have to replace the processors, the riser boards, and possibly some of the expansion cards. The technical differences between the boards are significant and not worth the expense of replacing most of the internal hardware to accept the III gen board.
Hello, I'm wondering if its possible to swap the motherboard in a Gen I 2950 for a Gen III motherboard? - Will CPU's transfer?- Will memory move over?- Will PERC raid config move over?- Any other gotchas? Looking to take advantage of the internal USB header on the Gen III boards. Thanks,Tim
