Don't forget ADB came out for the IIgs before it did for the mac.

Thanks, for some reason I thought the only way to get SCSI in an apple IIx computer was to build one or to get one built. I'd love to get one for my IIGS So I can use my HD20SC wit…

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…

Yes, I've printed from my IIgs to my Apple Personal Laserwriter NTR. In the IIgs control panel, there's an option to install an ImageWriter emulator in the RAM of the LaserWriter. …

Can a IIgs use an Apple laser by chance? I never bothered to try it. Click to expand... A few people I knew used Apple laser printers. I don't recall which ones though. I used…

yeah, I tried the HD 20, no dice. It just sat there. I booted off the GS/OS system floppy, and ran the advanced disk utility on the system tools 1 disk. It did not even pick it up,…

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…

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…

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 …

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).

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…

The software for your card is here. You can format the "rest" of the disk with HFS once you've got GS/OS up and running (and updated to a non-buggy HFS driver) to recover the othe…

It's an Apple II SCSI card, of which I just the found the manual here. But according to that manual, I have to use software provided with the SCSI peripheral to format and partitio…
