It's been a long time since I've used it, but I believe Bernie ][ The Rescue is what you need. I used to set up a small ProDOS formatted RAM disk in MacOS and copy whatever files t…

Heat is what I'm concerned about since there isn't much room in that case for air to flow normally much less with a third component crammed inside. Sure I can do it with a little …

I have an SE SuperDrive with two floppies and a HD mounted - bought it here a couple years ago actually. The floppy drives need to be cleaned so I've been meaning to open it up. …
