I connected SCSI from adapter (switched to SCSI not dock) to the back of Wallstreet to SCSI on back of Mac Classic. I turned on the Wallstreet, then turned on the Mac Classic and the Mac Classic hadr drive appeared on the Wallstreet screen. I clicked on the icon and it opened up to show the files on it. I did this to make the disk image and again to check to be sure I had not deleted the files in the process and they were all still there.
