If your computer contains a Level 2 cache card, it is recommended
that you remove it. Your new Sonnet Crescendo NuBus processor
upgrade card includes its own backside cache architecture so
removing your old cache will have no negative effect on your
computing experience.

6100 AV, Performa 611X, and Workgroup Server 6150

If there is a Level 2 cache card installed in your computer, it will be
located in the L2 Cache Slot, located next in between the ROM card and
the CPU with the large heatsink (Figure 1). Do not mistakenly remove
the ROM card. If you remove the ROM card, you will need to replace it
otherwise your computer will not boot.
