cube hard drive issues — #4
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…

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'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…

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…

The SCSI port of the Plus needed an HDD formatted for 1:3 interleave, ie a drive slowed down in data acquisition rate. Silverlining 5.8.x gives more control over such matters as b…

Boot from a floppy and run SCSI probe to have a look at the bus and see if it's advertising itself.
You have two problems...

I'm trying to connect a SCSI HD to the Mac Plus, but for some reason, it's not recognizing it.
Actually, it's not even recognizing that the drive is connected.
