I can’t help with a Micron user guide, but I can provide a link to Gamba’s website on the Wayback Machine: Gamba’s Site

That’s a very good point.

I use DAP Fast’N Final spackle. When it’s dry, I paint over it with a small water color paint brush. The results are adequate.

I tried that specific case with that specific Zheino msata drive back in Feb of this year after reading about success with that combo, and that case with an Adata 64GB msata drive in May of 2018. I was unsuccessful on both occasions. The drives work fine in my TiBooks. I wonder what the...

The only solid state drive I could get to work in my PowerBook Wallstreet II (PDQ) was a Compact Flash card by way of a PCMCIA card adapter in one of the expansion slots. I ended up putting a 40GB IDE hard drive in each of my PDQ’s, until I can find a better solution.

I don't know if other manufacturers did this, but Sonnet for a time was putting high temp cpu's in upgrades and overclocking them. Sonnet claimed reliability was the same, since the chip was a high-temperature chip and could tolerate an overclock at the lower temps of a Mac. Still, I think the...

The Sonnet Tango is the only Firewire/USB card I used that didn’t cause data corruption with Firewire hard drives. An early NEC chip based Orange Micro card for Mac was terrible in that regard, as was a generic card from CompUSA. PM8600.

I did the mod on the drive carrier, and my Matshita UJ-850S rev1.9 DVD-R/RW DL was able to boot from the Jaguar CD by pressing "C" on the keyboard at startup. This is fantastic - thanks again!

Your timing is uncanny - I am literally sitting in front of my Lombard, on top of which is a DVD-RW in a CD-ROM shell. I am looking forward to trying this mod, and I thank you very much for this info!

I once bought a very clean IIfx on eBay for $5 plus $20 shipping. There was no dust anywhere inside, including the fan blades. Sold as “broken,” it just needed new PRAM batteries. 2005 was a very different time.

I realize it has been over a year since you posted the question, and may no longer need the answer, but it looks like this info used to be available at xlr8yourmac.com. I cannot vouch for its accuracy. The pinout diagram from xlr8yourmac.com as archived by the Wayback Machine: Edit: Just...

The 17” version uses a flat cell that is no longer made. I have searched high and low for a 17” PB battery, only to receive batteries made for the 17” MacBook Pro.

I’m new to this thread (and forum) but thought I’d make a comment about my own rebuild of PRAM batteries on a few of my 17” PowerBooks a few years ago. I used copper foil with electrically conductive adhesive to connect the batteries in parallel, and then soldered tabs of the foil to the...
