Power Macintosh 7200/120

Power Macintosh 7200/120 OS 8 4 posts Jan 12, 2012 — Jan 14, 2012
I'm not sure if this is exciting to anyone else but me, but I acquired a Power Macintosh 7200/120 today! :) These machines are fairly rare in Australia :)

Specs:

Power Macintosh 7200/120 96Mb RAM 1Gb HDD Mac OS 8

Apple Color High Resolution RGB Display 640 x 480 13"

I cleaned up the file system and opened the machine up, it is very clean inside, no sign of dust at all. I bought the machine to finally solve my CF on SE/30 issue that you can read more on this thread here.

Anyway, I removed the SCSI CD-ROM and mounted the hard disk from one of my SE/30s and it worked! :) One more step towards my goal! :)

Nice machine, plus it's got PCI slots, and that's useful. Closest thing I've got is a 7100/60. :lol:

Nice! You don't have to remove the CD drive in order to install a second HD, there's room for it under the stock one -- usually covered by an EMI plate.

I just discovered that! Would have saved me some time if I'd read the forum before I fiddled with it! ;)

I managed to format my CF and boot up from with it! :) Success!!! :) Now on the SE/30s! :)
