I apologize that my full review has taken so long, but it's now Public... #MARCHintosh

You're going to be seeing a fair amount of MacBench in my newest video, Made for MARCHintosh, which hopefully will be out by next week. I will be sure to post the link here when it goes public. UPDATE: The VIDEO is out! Happy #MARCHintosh!

Thank you very much for the feedback, Colin. That's useful info. I believe they are indeed New Old Stock (NOS) because when I bought some from RS Components 2 years ago and had Kay Koba do a pro-quality socket swap for me, when I got the board back and installed SIMMs, I ended up snapping one...

Found your previous link on Internet Archive, which shows they cost $5.22 back in Dec. 2023... https://web.archive.org/web/20231211032002/https://www.peconnectors.com/sockets-pga-cpu-and-memory/hws5040/ Yikes! Even $5 each is quite high, but the current pricing is out of this world.

@This Does Not Compute I checked today and found the price of those 30-pin SIMM sockets to be $9.60 each! Do you remember how expensive were they when you put your spreadsheet together a year ago?

According to what I am seeing on Macintosh Garden here, early versions of QT work under System 6.0.7. Have you tried installing QuickTime and also 32-bit QuickDraw to a System 6.0.7 System Folder? For example, in my S6.0.8 System Folder, that icon looks like this:

So you have not tested any version of QT other than v1.6, correct?

David, very true! I thought that might be the limiting factor, as mentioned in this article about QT 1.0... https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2140/tn2140_QuickTimeDevelop7Article.pdf However, that same article goes on to say this: "...a later version will add QuickTime...

Likely due to lack of RAM because even version 1.0 required 4MB. With or without the PerformerSE, you're capped to 4MB.

Thank you for those details. And please know that I don't mean to hijack your thread. I am posting here to gain more knowledge about FujiNet, especially from folks like yourself who use it and love it. The main reason I mention the lack of an LCD on FujiNet is because @Kay K.M.Mods had released...

I don't own a Fujinet, but it seems to have some overlap with the FloppyEMU and SmartPort devices. However, I've never seen a Fujinet with an LCD screen on it, so I wonder if it is as easy to use as a FloppyEMU. I have two FloppyEMUs, and the LCD really aids in the device's usability.

Perhaps someone who has done the SE/30 Reloaded build (having tested their board before it was finished) could possibly answer that question, such as @Bolle or @This Does Not Compute or @Willj .

UJ11 is the SWIM chip which controls your floppy drives... That's interesting because earlier in this thread you spoke about smelling something bad when you connected your floppy drive. So everything seems to make more sense now. But the question is, was the floppy drive shorting something...

My biggest issue with Noctua isn't the color, although I agree that tan isn't a very brilliant color choice. That's because it's not that easy to spot the tan color inside an SE/30 unless you are constantly gawking at it from the back. No, my biggest issue is PRICE, in large part because they...

Well, in terms of what I said in my previous post about the possibility of some air shooting out the sides instead of all the air going straight out back, I suppose "static pressure" is indeed at work too. But regardless of "static pressure," if you look at my photo, the angle at which those...

It's maybe 2x better in quality, but certainly not 7x better. So yes, it is important to order many things at once. I ordered 5 different kinds of prints when I submitted my JLCPCB order, and I wanted to order more than that, but some STL files were "imperfect" according to JLC, and some of...

The CFM spec speaks about "air flow" and that tends to be tied to the RPM spec. Here's how the 5 fans I tested show airflow in the back, which admitedly is also impacted by the blade design. The blades and fan shape can determine whether more air flows straight out the back (which push my white...

Updated numbers as of just now... (Can't figure out how to prevent it from converting to Japanese Yen. Frustrating.) Mark, your Kickstarter page will have a spot in the new video I'm working on right now, because the product I'm showcasing in that video (Synchr030/S) has LEDs that can easily...

@wottle So it seems the on the LEFT in your photos is PCBWay because it "clearly" looks better than the one on the right in terms of transparency. And the fact it has the Apple logo is a huge difference that cannot be understated. I therefore would consider the COST and WAIT TIME to be...

Well, there are a few step-by-step videos out there which prove that it can be fixed. :) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNZ4qjMn-GHp9Krb6OMwdC8bJcCF3GzNt Be sure you do NOT throw it out because there are definitely good components on there which could be salvaged for other repairs (be...
