I'm running this combo just fine on a PM 7500 right now. I'm not sure that
whatever performance increase provided by SD on a PCI Mac is worth the
extra RAM hit though. If I had a NuBus PPC Mac, I'd probably keep it

RD 1.6.1 is working well. The fact that RD doesn't grab the entire block
of VM as diskspace is enough of a benefit for me to keep it around.

Will doing a custom install fix this?
