Trash80toHP_Mini
NIGHT STALKER
Right now mine's just about maxed out by normal standards:
PowerBook 1400c
CrescendoPB G3/466/1MB L2/32K L1 Data
64MB RAM
Orinoco (somethingorother?) WiFi Card (somewhere!)
Customized Bookcover
But this is "Beater" my beloved wardriving companion from back in the day and on up until almost eight years ago when I got HP_Mini. As the name implies, the case is in less than pristine condition, but that's the way I like it!
1.3GB HDD's not even close to 1/3 full so that's OK for the OS8.1 that's on it, I guess. But memory may be a bit of a problem in the near future. The other HDD I had in there is missing and I much preferred the OS 9.? installation on it. ISTR having some of it set up as VM, far more than the current 4MB set up as is anyway.
I'm about to install NewerTech's VIEWpowr™ 1400/16 Video Card, which is physically incompatible with some multiple third party memory modules.
So there's the rub, what would be the fastest, most reliable HDD replacement on its ATA bus, especially for Virtual Memory purposes running a flavor of OS9? Will economical solid state memory options fully saturate the 1400's IDE's bandwidth to give me the most performance I can possibly get out of the interface?
Crapdoodle! Wrong forum, my bad, please fix. [:I] ]'>
