This is not criticism, and I am not writing with the assumption that clever people didn't think about this first. I'm brainstorming and adding my two cents. I have some experience running similar message-boards and I know it's difficult to reorganize/reshuffle posts later. Not just difficult...

I think your suspicion is correct - I found this photo reference of a C103225 board described as being from a 1040ST and it appears to be the same, only with all of the memory (first image is mine)

Thanks! My UltraSatan arrived today and I was able to boot that 520STfm/1040board and sure enough, it is only 512Kb / TOS 1.02. Using the satan image I am able to load a few games, but most give a warning about being under 1MB, and only the simplest will run. I can't even run SYSINFO. Quick...

You know how the RaSCSI has the ability to add a second SCSI port for additional devices? I wonder if I turned off termination on the RaSCSI and added a SCSI 1 terminator to that second port if it that would solve the problem? I don't have one to try, but I'll keep an eye out at VCF or order...

Yes! I forgot about my FloppyEMU! I think of it as an Apple II device, but I recall it has capability with some firmware touching to work with a Mac. Yes (x2)! I was planning to design and print my own - the only other design I saw online seemed janky for what I wanted to do - this is newer...

Now that I think about it I probably should have been more specific. I think the RaSCSI is cool as heck - the ability to drag and drop disk images to my compact mac via a web browser is awesome. I'm sure the networking/web stuff is cool too, that's just too much like "day job" to me and I...

In the FWIW department, I confirmed that the SCSI port is fine on that machine. I took the question to the Open Retro SCSI RaSCSI Discord and the best response I got was "Mac termination is weird". “¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's annoying as I think about it - this makes RaSCSI basically useless to me. Not...

That's why I'm confused about the internal physical SCSI HDD + external RaSCSI (terminated with external power supply) not working. I would expect the Mac to see it like any other external SCSI device presuming the termination is present at the end of that particular chain. I know the RaSCSI...

Hi, did anyone get anywhere with this? I am attempting something similar - I have a Classic II with a working internal HDD. I'd am attempting to mount images from the RaSCSI as additional drives (mounted to ID 4 and 5) in hopes of transferring some files but no dice.

Thank you for the link, I will be certain to do so!

I've been interested in the Atari ST for decades., but I know little about them. While not as difficult to find in the US as Amiga computers, I spent most of the last year biding my time waiting to find just the right unit at just the right price... last Sunday was my big day. A local seller...

It took a while to complete, but the issue is resolved. I meticulously traced everything identified in the Branchus sound troubleshooting guide and found not a single bad trace. I mentioned that I don't have an ultrasonic cleaner and I have no experience attempting the dishwasher method, so I...

I will, particularly because threads with no resolution are the bane of the internet! However my chintzy multimeter died and stopped giving me proper continuity alerts so I gave in and ordered a Fluke. Might not be till the weekend when I make any progress. I know I wouldn't have done...

Yeah, on and off for the past three years I've been doing electronics stuff with direction, and every time I start a new project I see my work getting better and better. Sometimes I put something away and it just seems to... stay away (I'm looking at you old Atari 400 with the CTIA chip), other...

Thank you both. This afternoon I am to get in and under there - I never thought about the crystal, either. Reading that this is resolvable is enough to get me in there - was starting to have that "lost cause" / "am I just going to break something else" feeling and needed prodding :)

Context: SE/30, fully recapped logic, analog, and psu. Using (alternately) a BlueSCSI and RaSCSI device for boot. No internal hard drive or floppy drive. Other known but likely unrelated issues at the end of this post in case I'm missing a connection. Problem: Sound is...

Seconded. I just received an order from them for two different compact Macs, very pleased with pricing/shipping/customer service.

Despite being weeks late, count me in as well.

Right on - that's exactly who I ended up making my purchase from. I reached out last week to ask the same question and had a great back and forth with them. They couldn't answer my question and didn't have what they felt would certainly work in stock at the time (but do now). The person I...

Thank you! I received the same advice on Discord from ScutBoy. Being new to this platform, I think I was over-concerning myself with the thresholds of how much faster they can go.
