Anyone ever used a laptop drive in a compact Mac to save space for upgrades?
I have two that I could put into my SE30. I figure they should take very
little space and get rid of the bulky, small hdd in there, giving room for a
turbo 040 card.
Ever hear of a LaCie Backpack Drive?
a Laptop SCSI drive in a case that plugs into the SCSI port of a Compact
newer than a 512.
Hehe, who says pocket hard disks are a new idea ;)
I have a 160MB Quantum drive fro my PB 180c. I have bought a stack of restoration bits for my pile of sickly powerbooks and among them managed to get a 512MB 2.5" SCSI drive (cost a bomb -relatively speaking- mind you). I considered putting one in my 840av so i could use it's pair of UWSCSI drives as a RAID, but as Stuart says the adapters are really hard to come by over here.
On a not totally unrelated subject, I fitted a 5GB 2.5" Travelstar in my 7100cx a few weeks back - works like a charm and is mega fast.
