Nice! :O The PowerBook 180c is a really nice PowerBook.

I picked up 4 b&w g3s which I believe 2-3 of them have hd/ram a beige g3 a perfect condition powerbook 180c w/ power adapter an performa av (might be using the wrong nam…

Thanks! I'd always kept the G3 proc on my list of "let's just hold out and see," still in amazement. The RAM is at 80MB, not bad actually. I really want to get Classilla to run on …

So it's double-terminated now? Is this OK? Click to expand... Yeah, that's perfectly fine.

Thanks everyone! I finally got it to work! Seems like the problem was with the termination. The drive inside the case is an IBM WDS-L80 (probably) with Apple ROMs. Since it cam…

Always good to see another 2400c in good hands - mine is specced the same with the Newertech G3 240Mhz. With this sort of potency it deserves a nice fast modern hard disk, and the…

could be, get a tester or multimeter

the hd were an apple 20G and and an owc 80 G IBM the OWC drive stated it would work with the cube what about the dc to dc board in the cube could it be bad? michael

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(
