Sigh - it's not my day - I pulled out my external SCSI drive (I have an HDI-30 connector) and it is non functional - can't tell whether it is the power supply or the drive itself. Took apart to see if any burst caps, didn't see any. So now I have no way to reload that notebook drive. Taking the 5300 apart, I see this is a 17mm drive, which are now scarce as hen's teeth on eBay. I am thinking of transplanting my extra 1400 drive (12.5") into it, it will flop around but at least I can see if it will boot.

Anyone know of a place to get an external Mac SCSI drive on the cheap? With this shot, I have no way to get software into the 5300s...I no longer have a set of 7.x floppies.

Pooh. Just not my day all around.
