you typically don't see normal SATA ports on the outside of the case. which is why I did not include it. eSATA was include. Β

User 'uneedyt' on eBay is selling (poor) reproductions of this image, with no credit whatsoever... even goes to great length to hide the fact that his "posters", as he's calling it, come from images from the net.. doesn't care about copyright.....
He's earning tons for this practice each day...
Beware!!!

Do you need an image of the optical port for sound cards? I can provide that if needed.

Great image by the way. Thansk!

I can provide a photo of an optical audio port which I think is missing from this chart.

Hi!

Great work [link] , but I miss 13w3 graphic port [link] used by Sun Microsystems, Silicon Graphics, IBM RISC, Intergraph and some Apple Computer computer workstations; same connector was used by 3Com for a redundant PSU on the 3300 switch family. (source wikipedia: [link]

a card with 13w3 port: [link]

Since i own couple of SGI Indys in my obsolete-tech-museum i can send you hi-res pic if you want. Let me know at boyzl-dot-sand on gmail not to have issues with copyrights.

Hi, I would like to use your poster where I work in a computer repair shop. It will be so helpful to everybody including the young engineers. I have a similar poster from a German computer magazine and I will take a look in it for the missing images you are seeking. Thanks.

Wow, this is really neat/useful! Looking forward to the next update.

Is this only for IBM-compatible PCs, BTW? I occasionally used older Sun machines that used 13W3 video connectors, like this: [link]

Sonic840 In reply to schneelocke [2012-08-24 01:11:10 +0000 UTC]

There are PPC sockets as well (early Mac stuff mostly). I've got some stuff from Sun added to v2. The 13W3 was also used for the Apple Portrait Display. I didn't include it in 1.7 because it was on the Monitor and not the Computer itself... but It'll be in v2.

Voltage modulator slots/ports come in many shapes and sizes. I've got access to a few but I didn't add them to v1.7. v2 should have room for them. Thanks for the comment.

because USB 3.0 wasn't available when I published this version (1/31/2009).
