Questions about disk drives — #11

I have an Apple Rev C SCSI card in one of my IIgs systems and it is fast enough for GS/0S use. What I like about it is if I feel like just booting from a floppy to play a game I do…

I'm curious why it shows in the manual what looks like a HD20SC attached when there was no scsi port on the IIGS. Click to expand... Apple sold the SC20 about that time. A 20m…

Pismo and Apple remote? — #3

I never heard of that being possible. Maybe you'll want to go with an external solution.

Pismo and Apple remote? — #1

Hi I have a old but cool Powerbook G3 Pismo and an Apple remote. Since the Pismo has an Irda port I wonder if I could pair my remote with my Pismo.

The HD20 definitely won't work on a IIgs. There were only a few macs that it'd work on. Support for it had to be in ROM and unfortunately they never did that for the Apple II line.…

So I can't have 3x 5.25" and 1x 3.5? Click to expand... Nope, the whole system has assumptions about two drives per controller "slot." It just so happens that your slots are v…

Questions about disk drives — #4

ah yes, for some reason, I had a hunch it was 4. So I can't have 3x 5.25" and 1x 3.5? Not a big deal, as I have the right cards. I just need to pull it out of my IIe. I Could try …

Questions about disk drives — #3

You are allowed 4 drives on a IIgs. 2 x 3.5" and 2 x 5.25". The 3.5" have to be connected to the IIgs 1st in the chain (I have the drive manuals from Apple).

Questions about disk drives — #2

The IIgs' smartport allows you to have 2 800K drives (mapped to slot 5) and 2 140K (slot 6)... if you really want another 5.25" drive, you'll need to install a controller card and …

Hi all. I was wondering how I should have the disk drives hooked up to my IIgs, and how many I can have. I have 3 5.25" drives, a 800k drive, and a external FDHD, which I tested an…

Didn't the Quad G5's have the max RAM of 16GB?

G5 or Intel? — #17

Quad G5 sounds so cool...just to say you have it. Nonetheless, an Intel Mac Pro will be on my radar in the next few months. No immediate plans as they are pricey but just gorgeous.…

Gigabit Ethernet +Striped RAID = ? — #2

It's striped using Apple's drivers? I think the G5 was the first to support booting with Apple's RAID drivers. Some forum posts indicated MDD may also support this. Xserve definit…

Not even all the G4's could boot into OS9 directly, you just had classic support under OSX. Click to expand... I think the last gen MDD were the non OS 9.
