Re: Expansion Bay products

The problem seems to be that the screw holes are not in the same place as the original expansion bay drive (there ais one on the top, one on the side and one on the bottom in the center instead of two on top and one on the side (the only one that lines up) as per the original) face plate. That se

Well the plot thickens! I switched the drives around and the UJDA330 doesn't seem to have the screw holes in the same place as the UJDA710 mentioned in the article on the face plate. I can't seem to get it to fit correctly, even though it looks like it fits perfectly. The Pismo sees the drive and

Re: Expansion Bay products

I may have gotten them mixed up then (they look alike), since I updated the firmware just yesterday on my DVD drive and the C113 version is the one I got off ebay. Long day! That also answers the other question I just posted to the list. Thanks Tom > > The revision number is the firmware versi

Re: Expansion Bay products

Does anyone know if you could put any other kind of drive (like CD-RW or a hard drive) into one of the $20 Pismo Zip 100 expansion bay drive casings? And if so, where do you get just the "innards" like Tom seems to be talking about here. This is new territory for me. - Thanks, Diane On May

Re: Expansion Bay products

When I got my firewire PB I had to get a 250 zip module to go with it. I don't know why the idea attracted me. But nearly two years later I see that an external zip or no zip at all would have been better. I rarely use it. I guess I felt I needed a replacement for a floppy drive. But I don't h

Speaking of not being able to resist, I ordered the Zip 250 for $39 before I realized I have nothing else that reads the Zip 250 disks, just the Zip 100's. Now I just need a broken Pismo DVD/CD module, so I can install the CD-RW I just purchased in it, so I will have another expansion bay item to

Expansion Bay products

Expansion Bay for 1998 I contacted VST and they said sorry the zip drives would not work on the older (1998) powerbooks. However, I contacted the Smart Disk online store and they had expansion bay Zip 250s and also SuperDrive exapansions which take floppies and 120MB disks. Prices were a little
