I believe it was possible to daisy chain a Hard Disk 20 with a floppy drive. On just the right Mac, you could maybe hook up 4 floppy "devices".
Unless you can chain multiple hard…

Yep, you're correct. The max number of drives you can get on a Mac is three. Two internal (SE only?) and one external.

Glad to hear! That drove me crazy for weeks. By the time I thought I knew for certain what it was, the 30 day Windows eXtra Poop activation grace period was up, so I had to reinsta…
Interesting point about the nature of the HD, it is a non-original HD, it's a 500 MB drive. I originally thought it was an 80 MB when I got it but then I realized it had two hidden…
Hello,
I am new here. I am happy to join up with my many like-minded comrades. I wish I would have discovered this place earlier.
Here is my latest restoration, my first one in a…
This is due to the HD giving off magnetic waves which piss off the CRT. Get an ESD cover for the HD or put an original HD in.

This is NOT the problem. The CL…
Yeah, that's what I had gathered from Lowendmac and such. I suppose I'll be on the lookout for one then - I've been wanting a desktop Power Mac besides the fact.

I don't think the DOS card would work in a 6400 since it has to connect to either the PDS slot of the 8100 or a NUBUS slot, neither of which the 6400 has.

Even though you cleaned up the board and got it to boot, the capacitors on the motherboard are still bad and need to be replaced. Any electrical fluctuations will first show up in …
Had an amazing haul at Goodwill yesterday, best in ages!

Looking at your pic, it seems clear that the vent holes are not at the highest part of the case, when the Mac is mounted at that angle. Would propping it forward such that the ven…
Sounds like quite the demo indeed!
Keep your eye open for swap meets, Craigslist, and second-hand shops. I just bought a //e with disk drives for $20 from Goodwill.

I've noticed recently that whenever my Classic II accesses its HD the screen wobbles. As soon as the HD access stops the screen stabilizes. I have never seen anything like this bef…
Mine seemed awful hot too, so I added a fan at the top of the case blowing air out the handle holes. The fan doesn't fit flush, so the sides of the fan are sealed to the case with …
A bit of a switch, using the MIDI card as a serial interface. It was common to use a Super Serial card or a //c serial port as a MIDI interface by doing timing in software. I remem…
