MP 1,1-5,1 Identify Mac Pro

[yomnym]

Guys/gals

I was given an old Mac pro as a gift but it wont turn on, i need to identify the model. I cant really determine the year or identifier(e.g. mac pro10,1) without turning it on, which is the main problem. I got this photo from the back. What i'm trying to do is buy a new harddrive, upgrade the ram. I know the ram and HDD don't require me to know the model as i could pull out the actual hardware but I'm trying to determine whats OS i could run based on the year. From what I've read, 10.7 is the newest version.

Thanks for your help.

Looks like a 1,1 to me, if you type in the serial number you get the exact model that it was originally shipped as.

Serial is G874437QY8F, but that site, I’ve tried before and gives me 4-5 different models. I think this is the 2x quad core 3.0ghz. I’ve seen the HHD is. 320gb and X1900 Radeon gpu.
Thanks for the help.

its a MacPro1,1 with 2 Dual Core 3Ghz Xeons (if it was 2x Quad core it would say 8CX)

Probably someone who enjoyed ripping / burning DVD collections. I did the same... I have thousands of them stored away... Now replaced with high capacity hard drives connected to my media centers and TV's
