MacPro 1st Gen - can it handle SSDs? I have a MacPro 1,1 and am considering putting an SSD in it to give it a boost. Can I safely assume compatibility or will its ancient  hardware and architecture cause issues? It cannot, as I recently discovered, run Mountain Lion so I'm not sure if I should even try bringing it up to date.
Yes, I can confirm that I have installed an SSD into my Mac Pro 1,1. Because the drive is a 2.5" drive, though, I am using a 2.5" to 3.5" SATA converter sled. Note, if I recall, there are some of these converters that only work with certain models.
