Solid State Drive (SSD) in SE/30 — #57

Lifespan of a PRAM Battery In a Mac Classic II — #2

If you are just storing the machine, remove the battery. Batteries in machines that are used a decent amount (are plugged into main power) should last 4+ years.

Kurzweil K150fs - anybody use a ][ for SMP? — #4
