Re: Choices

Since I just took the step you are contemplating, I would advise on going ahead and spending the bucks for the combo drive AND additional RAM, the latter refreshingly inexpensive in comparison to older Macs. The CD-RW is really your only functional backup, and with an extra video cable, you ca

Re: problems connecting using SCSI Disk Mode

There are apparently three cables ... 1) 29 pins, no switch, 2) 30 pins, no switch, and 3) 30 pins, with switch. I believe (2) and (3) can both accommodate SCSI Disk Mode. (1) definitely cannot. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://

Re: problems connecting using SCSI Disk Mode

Hook up the adapter with the switch turned on. Fire up that powerbook. It should boot with the SCSI Disk mode screen. Plug it into the other machin and boot that machine. It should show up as a hard drive on the desktop. -Scott on 9/17/01 7:19 PM, Chris Loehr at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I do

I have sold those adapters before and there are two types. I believe one is 29 pin (no switch on it) and the other is 30 pin but it had a switch on it that allowed you to switch between scsi disk mode and regular scsi. Also it had a little led that lit up when in scsi disk mode. I do know there

Re: Choices, choices

I believe the cost of upping the machine to a CD RW is about $200, which is the current going rate for an external CD RW drive of the same speed. So cost isn't an issue, and I prefer to have to carry as little as possible in my laptop bag. (I usually leave my 3400's Zip module and 2 spare batteri

Re: HD mounting bracket for 3400c

The 3400 will take 9.5, 12.5, and 17mm drives. The physical size of the drive is irrelevant in this situation.. The problem is that the screw holes are in the wrong place, as the 3400 was designed around the earlier drive spec format. My recommendation is to drill the right holes in the
