The wonderful thing about the Apple II Workstation Card is saving desk space. If you need to use Apple II expansion cards, you are probably best off with a real IIe or IIgs and the…
I always use a hard disk -- one that is usable but disposable -- for 12V and 5V testing. It is easy to make a test cable (with tapping points to measure voltages) from salvaged wir…

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?

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…

Actually, macdan has a solution that does not involve finding the same hinges (all three displays use different hinges, but the same clutch). All you need to do is pop off the clut…

If calibration doesn't do it, then I'd say the battery's dead. I saw that wit my first gen "BlackBook": one day 85% of full charge capacity, and the next day it shuts off without w…

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.…
First I'd suggest you go through a full calibration circle.
The fact that the iBook shuts off without warning nor sleep seems to tell the battery doesn't know what's its charge.

Anyone have this archived anywhere? I have an original of this, on 3.5" floppy. If anyone wants it, I can upload it. I also have a bunch of of other stuff from Quality Computers he…

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…

Have you tried taking out all drives except for the optical, and then giving it a go? That way it would force it to boot off the disc, or not at all.
Sometimes my b&w G3 wo…
