Ladies and Gentlemen, we have SCSI! Meaning I managed to get SCSI going on the SE30. It was the two faulty vias between the SCSI chip and the glue chip.

I tried everthing I could think of to test the system (both internal and external drive, formating, disk copy between two drives, bad block checking etc) and it seems stable, so that's grand.



Next on the list are serial ports, I reckon there may be a problem as well as there are a lot of badly corroded vias around that area. We shall see...the saga continues.
