I can confirm that dumping the SCSI2SD to the BlueSCSI using Initiator Mode works just fine. I'm doing so right now and am getting 1 MB/s transfer speed.

Couldn't you just put the BlueSCSI into initiator mode to dump the contents of the SCSI2SD into an image file?

An SE/30 I recently acquired on eBay had a Pivot expansion card loose in the chassis. I connected it to the logic board and found it perfectly functional, though it's seriously lacking in capability because it has only 256 KB of RAM on the card if I'm adding correctly (two chips of 256 kbit x4)...

Alright, it's all better now. I found some exposed traces between the pins of the keyboard connector, so I soldered in a new connector with as little solder as I thought I could get away with while using the multimeter to check each pair of pins for bridges and to the vias to check for...

Well, I finally broke out the multimeter to check the keyboard connector I soldered onto the IIGS board. Somehow, pins 13 & 14 are tied together (bringing X0 to ground). There is no obvious bridge, so I fear there is some sort of bridge under the connector, meaning I'll have to remove the...

I have the same symptoms with both the original //e keyboard and the MacEffects keyboard. I tested the MacEffects keyboard on the IIGS several months ago with exactly the results I described for the original //e keyboard. I hadn't even test the original keyboard on the //e. I just connected it...

I've gotten my dad's //e and moved it into a MacEffects clear case. I also got from MacEffects the IIGS conversion kit so that I can put it in the old //e case. I have soldered in the power & keyboard sockets, but when I connect the //e keyboard, it fails to boot from the ReActiveMicro...

The original part would certainly be preferable to my as yet unfinished poor replacement.

The adapter I was using is set with 1367 and works perfectly with my Performa 476. It just doesn't play nice with the Quadra 650 on the same displays. I'm now using an adapter with no switches at all. I haven't tried that adapter on the displays that were having issues. I'm still hoping someone...

OK, so it wasn’t a shoddy connection. Hooking it up to yet another display I get green again. So the compatibility is a bit hit & miss. Oh well.

I think it may have been exactly what I thought it was at first: a shoddy connection on the VGA. The green was showing up on the same display I use for the Performa with no issues at all. Removing the VGA adapter and then reconnecting to a similar HP display fixed the color issue. Now I’m having...

Holy smokes, it works! I borrowed the VRAM and the LC040 from my Performa for testing. The picture is a bit green. Not sure what to make of that. But it boots from an external SCSI device (ZIP 100 in this case) and the keyboard and mouse work, too. Now I guess it's time to get the parts I'm...

I'm halfway done converting a spare ATX PSU to the 10-pin layout on this board. The only rail that doesn't really have enough oomph is the -12V, but I've read that's only for some Nubus cards. I'm not currently planning on having any cards in it at all. But it seems I need to build an inverter...

Mainly I’m talking about the platform that carries all the drives. Absolutely all the innards except the logic board had been previously pilfered (even the CPU and SIMMs). I could probably get by without a floppy drive, but it would be nice to have the option. And I’m not looking to spend much...

One of the many items I got from Computer Reset was a gutted (and battery bombed) Quadra 650. All that was left was the case and the logic board. I'm hoping to get it going one day, but the lack of a drive chassis makes to potential installation of a floppy drive challenging. Does anyone know of...
