Oh man, dunno. I have a Color Classic that I did my 640x480 mod on, I could stick my other upgrade card in there. I'm at work so my mind is racing over possibilities when I get h…

I don't really use my 8500 that much anymore. However, I downloaded your utility just in case I need it in the future and I wanted to make sure the documentation is as complete as …

So what he didn't mention in the description was: The LC is in its own box, complete with all software, manuals, original cords, keyboard, mouse, and styrofoam inserts. The high r…

only a female IDE port on them, same as the IDE to SD/CF adapter. Click to expand... So you make up a short IDE cable. 68-pin SCSI port on it. Click to expand... Perf…

Good job. This is the part where we mob you for disk (and disc) images.

Eggs-actly. Avoid the wet-slug style tantalums when buying replacement caps. Nearly all caps you will find today are solid, but there are some of the old wet types in surplus catal…

Niiiiiiiiice :O

Thanks for the correction, Henry. While I have read about the old "wet slug" tants that do have fluid inside, for more than 15 years I have never (neither professionally nor in my…

I officially *HATE* you with a passion. *breaks down into tears* Would you still be willing to let go of that TransWarp?

Some tantalum caps have liquid electrolyte and some are solid. The liquid-filled ones may leak or dry out like aluminum Caps. The solid ones are very long lived.

I just got back and it's even cooler than I thought. I had trouble keeping my composure when I saw it, and I felt a little guilty walking out of the house with it. $10!!!! I…

... if there's anyone still interested. Last evening I got the 9500 out again after having given up working on it for a month. In the month since then, a mouse had crawled into th…

I'm currently using CF in most of my older macs: http://synack.net/~bbraun/idecf.html The SCSI based systems are using the R-IDSC-E adapter linked to earlier, with my experiences…

Thank you, JDW. Basically, $10 plus $20 plus the shipping cost to send it to me, which usually runs around $10 to $20 USD for those sending in the U.S. For international, it will…

He, true, but with a new 6" silent fan and a bum ear, I'm anybody's fool! And I agree, *never* leave an SE/30 without ventilation.

Our local Goodwill was having a 3-day Thanksgiving sale. So I went there to see what bargains I could find. Aside from getting a C language programming book, a book on doing 3D ef…

I now have an SE/30 with SSD - quiet as a "Fat Mac", Click to expand... Well, not as quiet as a Fat Mac unless you have also taken out the fan. Which on an SE/30 might not be t…

I can attest to the first adaptor listed in your post above. It's the same I've used with great success for my "SSD in an SE/30"-project! Please note; it's meant for full size HDD…

I decided to take a look for SD to IDE adapters on Ebay. And there's a lot of them! :O Just looking at all the stuff one would need makes me dizzy. First a SCSI to IDE adap…

Ahh yes, speed, I forgot. Well - yes and no. It's faster then the stock Apple 40 meg, but no more than the IBM 9gig. I suppose the SCSI bus is hindered by age, and by a dog-slow s…

Woah. That's all I can say. Is it faster?

Hi all. Just wanted to share my experiences on SSD's (Solid State Drives) and my SE/30. My SE/30's stock Apple drive was getting *very* noisy indeed, and a replacement 9gig IBM d…

Well they both have internal SCSI, so the process is the same. First, find your SCSI to IDE adapter ... BTW

Great score. I miss my old LC.

Also keep in mind that II-series power supplies die very gradually. If you keep plugging and unplugging the power cord and mashing on both the keyboard and back panel power buttons…
