    Opening an external LaCie Tsumami case

    So I finally decided to fire mine up and was surprised the 250MB Quantum inside still worked. Extremely load, so I doubt it will last long. Not a problem, as I'll be throwing a BlueSCSI in mine once my PCBs come in. Are you removing all the electronics, PCU and all, and simply having the...

    120GB SSDs in G4 Cube

    Looking at the solder on your adapter makes me realize why mine was so cheap...

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    I suspected the powered hub may be the problem, but don't have a powered hub on hand. Then I remember that I have a powered USB switch. So I used that and it turns out the unpowered hub was it. Thanks for the information. Playing around with it now! I may try @z90 's idea of throwing some of...

    120GB SSDs in G4 Cube

    Wouldn't you be able to use a MSATA IDE enclosure (I've had good luck with this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GRMUQRG?psc=1&smid=A3TUR5JBYCEPNE&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp) attached via a IDE 2.5 to 3.5 adapter (I've used this one...

    Sorry, somehow I posted this response to the wrong thread. Sorry for the confusion.

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    So, got the USB drive imaged and followed the steps for making it bootable, but when I boot it with the USB drive attached, I get the Apple logo, then I just get a spinner with the 🚫 symbol. Assuming I did something wrong when modifying the partitions?

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    Yeah, I don't think Monterey likes the disk image. I had to do it from my 2009 Mac Pro with Mojave.

    BlueSCSI - Open, Low Cost, DIY SCSI to SD device

    Awesome. I’ll print them out so they’ll be ready when my PCBs come in. I’ll let you know if I run into any fit issues

    "Platinum" PLA for Macs and Apple ][s

    Yeah, unfortunately, it looks like shipping to the US doubles the cost. Anyone find a US source for that filament? Also curious to see the results. My black Mystic back plate is less than ideal! :)

    BlueSCSI - Open, Low Cost, DIY SCSI to SD device

    Sure. If you post them, I can create a PR in the GitHub repo to add them to the 3d printed directory. Or if there's anything else I can do to lighten the load...

    BlueSCSI - Open, Low Cost, DIY SCSI to SD device

    Oh, didn't realize you bought the kit, Thought you had done the DIY version where you just got the PCB from @eric. I also got one included with my pre-assembled order from @torbar. Maybe he has the STL files we could use.

    BlueSCSI - Open, Low Cost, DIY SCSI to SD device

    Yeah, struggling to find the STL files for the 1.1 version. @rikerjoe - it looks like you had the case for the DB25 version. Where'd you get that? Looks like the STLs in the git repo is still just for 1.0 version.

    RASCSI Internal holder?

    Makes sense. Somehow my childhood fear of plugging a SCSI device into a running machine made me concerned this would be a problem!

    RASCSI Internal holder?

    Does the RaSCSI bot up fast enough to be used internally? I use mine externally and power it up a few minutes early with a USB battery pack. I guess the machine, if no other SCSI drives are present, will just wait for the RaSCSI to boot and mount the default config and associated drives?

    New BlueSCSI PDS Card slot bracket for Macintosh SE and SE/30

    FYI, seemed like a lot of supports, so I modified the design to allow it to be printed without the need for large amounts of supports. Printed and in use in my SE/30 with no issues. It takes less time to print, and uses a pin in the back corner to hold the card in place, which seemed to work...

    2008 iMac 24” Restoration Journey

    Had the same thing with a 27". Got it to boot once to blank gray screen, then couldn't get anything but a black screen. GPU failures are common, and it appears to often be related to bad solder joints. That's when I found @JDW 's series on YouTube about the iMac GPU bake. It sounds absurd...

    @splorp, I finally got around to setting things up to allow me to try out BatteringRamPro. Thanks for the tips. Just writing this followup in case someone else comes here trying to do the same and was in the same ignorant state I was in. I couldn't figure out how to load packages directly...

    MessagePad 120

    It says it only affects 2000/2100/eMate, but I'm unable to set the current date on my 110/120/130. Is there a patch for them?
