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…

Holy hell...as others said - those accelerator cards alone are worth it! Nice haul! :O Good score on all the other bits too

I had to read that a second time. I thought you had missed the '475' on the end of LC. I did not know they even made that upgrade. I wish we had that back when our family had an…

WHAT! > You are SO FRICKIN LUCKY!!!!!!!!1!11!!!! That is worth it for the upgrades alone. Would you be interested in organizing a deal for the Transwarp since we live …

The II, IIx, and IIfx should all be able to take the same power supply. One test to see if the power supply is working or if it is a problem with the batteries or caps or whatnot …

As a mod its my duty to remind everyone to follow the forum rules, and remember that "Keep it Civil" extends beyond the Lounge.

hello world- as i am well aware of the art of putting sd memory cards in a macintosh SE, i was wondering if the same could be done to a macintosh classic. why? well, i am working…

Wonderful! Nice job!

OK, so I have to drive an hour and half to pick it up. So that'll cost me $40 in gas, assuming my time isn't worth anything (which it isn't on Sunday.) So a guy is selling all th…

Based on this price estimate, my guess is that it will cost no less than $20 (since I have never done such a job in less than two hours), plus the cost of return shipping. Assumin…

I'd google for them. The MythTV Modeline database might have what you need. Another place for the raw values is the EIDE info for the display, which you might also find on the web.…
