InfiniteReality 3 DG problem

RE: InfiniteReality 3 DG problem
Yeah, it's not a good design. I'd prefer that the screws were spring-loaded so the board could go in flush and such without the screws.

But these were not designed to be serviced by owners/onsite staff, no, for a 300k+ machine you'd be calling up SGI to send field techs out.

I'll ask my former SGI employee friend Shawn -- he will know if these components were:

"Field diagnosable" (Meaning it would be possible to diag in the field)

Or

"Complete Replacement Unit" meaning the broken one is replaced, and the original would be RMA'd

https://codeberg.org/SolusRaion -- Code repos I control

Technical problems should be sent my way.
