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?

Just when I thought I was educated in the versions of 7.1, now I find that there is even a 7.1.3!!! http://inlovewithapple.com/software.html I have no idea other than what the pa…

The SCSI card that I will eventually use is the ATTO SE IVD, but it si currently not installed. I'm pretty sure that both ProTools cards I have are the SA4 kind, but again, not in…

That's pure sadistic evilness.....

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…

Excellent, now we've got the expert's evaluation. Now I need to make up my mind whether I want to try and go in again. The problem was that all communication was through an employ…

Any legitimate recycler paying $20 for an old iMac is horseshit. It generally costs recyclers money to deal with the CRTs. That means there has to be more than $20 in scrap value …

Yeah, I agree with you. They're lucky to get any sale on it at all. The thing is, I didn't even get a chance to make my offer. It was literally, "$50, as-is, and that's final." May…

i would give them the option 40$ and you take it or they can take it to the recyclers and hope to get 20$

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…

They're not really very friendly at this shop. It is PC-only. I'm not sure if it's worth my time/money to come back and ask again about the iMac. And the orange iMac was both tray…

If it was AU$50, I'd snap it straight up. But US$50? Fahgeddaboutit.

Any bootable CD should allow you to check those things. Bootable on that particular iMac that is. If the HD appears on the desktop, select it and hit Apple-I for information. To…

i tried the search bar, and it ignores "se" i really need just to know what type of hdd to get/what recommendation people have for this issue btw, can i use the scsi hdd from a PM…

I'm not certain, but I think that it's a tray-loader. I didn't pay attention. Also keep in mind, I haven't actually seen this thing work. I could buy it, take it home, and it's tot…

what tools do i need to do this repair? Click to expand... The one in the top right corner of this page.

What type of model? Slotloader or Trayloader? This makes a huge difference. Technically this should be the price for these iMacs, but their price is so low because they are commodi…

Sure it can! :rambo:

I bought a 6 or 700mhz imac for 20 or so bucks with hd/etc... I'd be firm with an offer of 30 since after all it is 10 bucks more than they are saying the recyclers would give them…

It's going to be given to a friend as an upgrade to an original bondi iMac which I gave him a few years back. He doesn't know that he's getting it though. It's sort of a late-Chris…

Seems a bit steep to me, unless it's in museum condition. The real question is: is it worth it to you? If the $50 won't lead to starvation and the iMac is something you'd get any u…

That's a pretty nice 'Book. I think you'll like it.

I just assumed they did - as I said, when I was on dialup, the 68kMLA loaded faster than most other sites, and I assumed it was because it was cached better than most other sites, …
