can i use the scsi hdd from a PM 8600, it is like 2gb Click to expand... Yes.

I recommend a Quantum ProDrive LPS. These drives were used by Apple in the early 1990s, mostly in LCs, and can easily be had for a few dollars (often as part of an LC or LCII). The…

It would help, since System 6's HD SC Setup won't be able to partition it. But it *MIGHT* pop up as "unformatted disk, would you like to format?"

Does the disk have to be formated first?

Is it possible to use an external Jaz drive with System 6? Thanks, agg23 Click to expand... Yes. At minimum, you boot the system with a disk in, and it will treat it as if it…

I know this is probably a hard question I'm asking, but I am still wondering if this is hard drive related at all? Originally when I went to reinstall Mac OS 9.2.1 (using the OS 9…

As I suspect you know, the colour PowerBook Duo screens where marginally thicker than those found on the greyscale models, and so a replacement lid for the original DuoDock was ava…

And as a humorous sidenote, note to self:Unlike what you read everywhere on the web, you *can* put a 2300c in an original DuoDock, and it works just fine. You only need to push a l…

Wow, beachycove, what a complete answer! Thanks a lot to both of you. Actually last night I took some time to test those babies, and it seems like it's Christmas all over again! …

That is a step I plan to try down the road. Right now I plan to try Disk Warrior as it can 'see' the drive but not access it. I ran Disk Utility - First Aid but was stopped by an…
