Wow, that is just awesome! 8-o

Very nice! How much RAM do you have in the system now?

... how do I get termination power from the drive itself? One of my newer SCSI drives (9GB) has such an option, but not on the IBM 80MB drive. Click to expand... the enclosure…

WOW!!! Nice! I love when people get those deals like that.

What a score! :O The machine sounds like a beauty, I hope she serves you well!

I just had to share. I've had a string of bad luck with a 2400c I had so I bought a cheapo "parts machine" off of eBay awhile back and thought it'd be good to change out the boards…

What does SCSI-probe say? Click to expand... Tried SCSI probe, but it looks as if the drive isn't connected at all. Drives generally have a variety of jumper-controlled …

Check the power connector for cracks in the solder to the pcboard. Check the voltage at the drive under load if possible or atleast check to see if there is a voltage dip when runn…

The capacity of the drives do not really equate to power consumption. Personally I would connect them to a known good computer/enclosure and test them like that as well as check t…

What are the GB sizes of the drives in the order that you replaced them? It is possible that there isn't enough electrical power to run the drives or there is a problem with the p…

Great, thanks for the responses. I will open up the SE tomorrow and attempt the transplant. I expected that I'd need the SCSI cable from the Classic II, so I've held onto that an…

System6+Vista, Adding a SCSI HD to a dual 800K floppy SE is easy. I've done it before with mine, but I ended up with some obstacles. For one, the SE didn't have the SCSI ribbon …

I have a mac cube that ran fine for about a year and the hd failed so I put a drive I pulled. this drive worked for a couple of months and it started having problems it would spoo…

Yeah thats what I've read, but just to see if it works. Ahh whatever. I just want a working Compact. xx(

The Logic board is in better condition than yours, but has some leaky caps.. This may be fixable with a nice Wash, Click to expand... No, it will not, the capacitors need to be…

Hows the analog board on that Classic 2? I have a Classic 2 with a bad analog board. The Logic board is in better condition than yours, but has some leaky caps.. This may be fixabl…

Porter's question is a particularly relevant one. The Mac Plus does not supply termination power. Termination resistors perform two functions -- they reduce transmission-line refle…

"SCSI bus is not responding. Check that devices are connected and powered up." Click to expand... Have you gone through the termination options? What does SCSI-probe say?

I tried using Silverlining version 5.5, and when I try to "Select Drive..." from the File menu, I get... "SCSI bus is not responding. Check that devices are connected and powered…

I'd say the capacitors have gone on the Classic II motherboard...you can either replace the caps yourself and keep using the Classic II, or trade/give the machine to someone else o…

Yes, swapping out one of the floppy drives is really simple. Every Mac SE has an internal SCSI port on the motherboard for an internal HD, you just need a mounting bracket (heck, y…

Now that I've got a long Torx-15 screw driver, I'm having a lot more fun in the repair shop with my old Macs. I finally got to see why my Classic II was presenting only a Simasi-M…
