woah, many many thanks to everyone for the combined effort! def a jewel to have here!

it has 2 floppy ports so yes I believe so

ah I see; yeah with the superdrive update you could use 2 floppy drives -- in my case I have a bluescsi and a 1.44mb drive. I dont use the secondary port 🤷‍♂️

beautiful, beautiful machine -- many thanks for sharing this story!; reminded me of a similar experience I had when I restored mine -- fun fact, playing indiana jones on both the SE/30 and the SE, you can noticeable hear the music being quite slower on the SE hahah. Have you considered...

from my previous experience, I woudl 1. start by cleaning the board and start checking connections, sometimes it looks worse than what it actually is. iand depending on your experience I would consider getting a bolle reloaded and transplanting everythign to the new machine -- its a process that...

For sure, indeed I used the cheapest one that wasnt on a boat that takes like 3+ months so iirc is what you have the air delivery one :)

Hi there! I have purchased 2 times from buyee.jp and they pack well (or at least they have done a good job) IF you are still concerned you can pay extra to buyee.jp directly to re-repack your items to have more peace of mind. So far the only issues I have had from japan is that the 2 boards I...

+1 to what @JDW suggests -- also check http://www.applefool.com/se30/ (long read but worth it) -- you might want to try working with system 7.0.1 basically uses less ram with the features that 7+ has

the diodes are straight forward to figure out, and the RTC iirc there are replacements for them already. you can check for part numbers in this sheet

you have a bunch of traces gone, you will have to take out the rom slot also and see how bad is underneath, the RTC looks gone but I might be wrong; best thing is to start cleaning it as much as you can and remove the old caps, THEN you can see the amount of damage you have fwiw not all hope is...

the garbled sound doesnt have anything to do with any of the audio system, you will have to check all the digital and analog connections from the processor to all the parts -- there is a matrix that you can use from the digitized schematics Check...

the garbled sound could also be a Digital (or analog? cannot remember) trace from the processor with contact (continuity) issues. you might want to check those

1rst of all, congrats! -- yet I can see some corrosion on that capacitor C12 -- do change them asap :)

it could be the amplifier IC below Q1 and Q2 (cannot recall the name, its surface mounted and has 8 pins) -- next to that blue cap. It would be helpful (for you) to clean all the flux with isopropyl alcohol also. Finally -- does the same noise happens with your headphones?

ha!, coincidentially enough I have a LC II case which I plan to install a LC475 motherboard in it to make a rogue LC II 😏 -- thanks for checking out the video! :D

Hey Everyone 👋 Me again, on this episode I show you how to build a micromac performer accelerator card for your Mac SE -- here we convert the Mac SE to a "Mac SE++" which has a 68030 processor with FPU and MMU the "++" part is because is not a SE/30 as there is no way still to add more ram...

Alright, it took me a bit to do this but here is the 2nd part! I tested this out with another video card and with B&W works well. I then went ahead and changed the monitor + the original (defective) card and with B&W works "well" -- in regards that you still see the background as blue 🤔...

hey @JDW ! Thanks for checking out the video! :). That's a great point, I didnt show how the monitor looks with a different video card :(. But the plot gets better! -- with the same video card, I realized that I had the monitor set to black & white, that video card lets me set the video to...

Not sure where to place this (mods let me know if its fine here, else I can move it :)) The Apple Portrait Display, released in 1989, was a groundbreaking monitor that broke away from the conventional 4:3 aspect ratio of its time. Designed with productivity in mind, it featured a tall 15-inch...

thanks for the insights! -- the fan is barely noticeable, actually I was surprised when I saw a fan when I opened it :).
