Thank you folks.
I'm glad someone pointed out that some hard disk may put stress on the PSU and the non-Apple brand might have trouble being recognized by the system.
I have a few bare hard disks laying around and they are Apple 80MB, Apple (conner) 160MB, IBM 500MB and Seagate 2GB.
The SE/30 has *20 MB* hard drive in it and it's very noisy indeed. The Mac is sitting on top of the external 100MB HD and these two make even louder noise totally unacceptable by todays standard.
I got the IIfx ROM and was planning to install it but the Mac boot up process would stop at the 'welcome to Macintosh' indefinately.
Since I got the ROM, I'd like to run the latest OS on a bigger HD to make it usable for todays standard.
I'm not good at troubleshooting so I'd rather not push to the limit like some of you did with your Mac.
So if I was to run OS8.1, will Apple branded HD be the best bet given what I have?
