Does the Hyperdrive work on any model from 128k to Plus? Or are they specific to a 128k, 512k, or Plus?
As far as I have read, this HyperDrive upgrade was for 128k and 512k Macs only. The 128k version included memory to increase it to 512k plus the 512k hard drive upgrade. The Mac Plus, having a SCSI port would not need this so GCC came up with the external HyperDrive FX/20 for that model and up.
In unit#2, I find it cool/funny/odd that the miniscribe is installed with the faceplate for a black faced PC or something similar.
Sorry to confuse matters with two units in one thread. The Unit#2 had a different drive in it. I would assume it's an MMI 10MB drive (like JDW has in his) as opposed to the unit#1 having the 20MB MiniScribe drive. In any case, it is weird that they still included the faceplate in the 10MB version. I would assume that drive part itself would have cost s small fortune so they didn't bother touching it when it came from the manufacturer. Nobody was ever supposed to see it anyway
