Eh, don't feel that way. As long as the HD's not a Conner, it should be perfectly fine. In fact, these drives pop up on eBay sometimes. I even saw a lot of 14 2.5 SCSI hard drives…

This look interesting as well: http://dreher.net/?s=projects/CFforAppleII&c=projects/CFforAppleII/main.php I've contacted the guy about the pricing and availability.

Is the 40 MB 2.5 SCSI HD a Conner? If so, then those weren't very reliable and had a tendency to die, so I'm pretty sure the HD's toast. The reason why it has no SCSI power connec…

A 2.5" only needs +5VDC so that should be easy enough. You can get pinouts of drives at http://pinouts.ru/pin_HD.shtml I was just looking online and there are adapters available. …

Hi, I've looked at what I have, and I'm unsure how to follow this project. Let's see: I reopen my IIgs and looked inside it. There is no such thing as a way to get a 3.5" HD powe…

I had a bit of time yesternight to look at the Apple Macintosh CD which is for the 7200, 9500 and a few other Macs. It's dated 1996 and says that it has System 7.5.3 on it. However…

It's a coincidence that you mention that, because I've had the CD for years now and never could use the OS (just the assorted goodies like Gerbils and what-not). I have not tried i…

To be frank, I'd stick with System 7.1 and not touch System 7.5.3. Your Macintosh Classic II will feel slower with System 7.5.3. 50-pin hard drives (which your Macintosh Classic I…

There's an electronics waste/collection place by my house, and every once in awhile, I check out what's in the dumpster behind the building. So far I've acquired a Netpliance I-Ope…

If you want a copy of the original 7.1.2 for PowerPC, I think I just found my OS disc collection, and could image the disc for you. (Only the very first set of PPCs could run 7.1.…

Wow! My total CPU count has doubled in the past week, but my wallet remains at a constant size. 8-o First conquest: Power Mac 8100/80 from the library of a neighboring village.…

I read quite a few Usenet posts last evening on this subject, most from the late 80's. It looks like co-operative multitasking is going to be the way to go, unless one can get a ca…

Not that big, TBH. The software took up most of the space.

Nice! How big was everything in total?

Oh yeah, also a Palm Pilot Professional w/cradle/case.

Finally made another trip over and got the following: boxed MacAlly multi-port adapter (lets you use several serial devices on one serial port) untested Duo Type 3 battery w/case…

Wow! Great Conquest, the SuperDrive versions are SUUPPPPERR rare! They were called FDHD's before.

4 meg of memory and a 40 meg HD!! I guess that would make it an SE 4/40? It's a little slow for System 7, but it runs. The small screen is sharp and bright. Eric :beige:

Also to add, it is a good idea to "bless" the System Folder, once the disk image is copied to a floppy disk. It's real simple to do; just open and close the System Folder itself i…

I'm a little confused as to the advice being given here ... First, what kind is your hard drive and what is it attached to presently? To use the 1.0 disk image, you need a Mac th…

Those dates indicated System 1.1g (the May 1984) Indeed, there is a "cleaner" .img file out there which has all of the original dates.

Now I just gotta get room for it all. Click to expand... If you say so. Nice little conquest, it's like the broken eMac I picked up just for the combo drive in it.

I picked up a broken quick silver yesterday for the handles I needed for my quick silver inside the qs was a superdrive, zip drive and a ati rage card got that for 10 bucks then th…

So it's just the individual files. You need a Mac with an 800k drive, select single sided when you format the disks. I have no idea how you "bless" the system file. The floppies …
