    Apple Hard Disk SC replica

    Thanks for bringing this up. I just measured the depth of my Macintosh SE, and it's about 9.5 inches (24.13cm). Yet according to the original Apple Datasheet, the depth of the HD xx-SC series is 10.5 inches (26.6cm).

    Apple Hard Disk SC replica

    Yeah, the one printed in the Macintosh SE user guide fits perfectly under the Mac. But there are some engraved lines into the case like the one on the front, for which I can't find any dimensions. Thanks for the tipp, I will ask PotatoFi later on.

    Apple Hard Disk SC replica

    Hi, I'm trying to build an exact replica of the Apple Hard Disk SC in Fusion 360, in order to 3D print it and put in one or two of my own versions of the blue SCSI to sd PCB. The only problem is, that I don't have the exact dimensions, that's why I am opening this thread. Maybe somebody has the...

    Transfer Data between vintage Macintosh and modern Macintosh

    I am not quite sure, what's going on between those two Macs, so I thought maybe I sould try Wireshark the connection and look at that. I am not a profi, but it looks like to me, that the Performa tries to send an ARP request, trying to find my MacPro where the FTP server is hosted. And...

    Transfer Data between vintage Macintosh and modern Macintosh

    I've tried accessing the FTP server (QuickFTP) on my Performa, no luck there. I ensured that the server was working, by connecting a Windows notebook via WLAN to the server, which worked like a charm. @LaPorta mentioned that my Fritzbox router might be the problem, luckily my MacPro has a...

    Transfer Data between vintage Macintosh and modern Macintosh

    Hi, Thanks, the Performa has a 10BaseT and 10Base2 port. But I use the 10BaseT because the rest of my network is obviously RJ45 as well. I will try later on setting up an FTP Server on my modern Mac and let you know if it worked.

    Transfer Data between vintage Macintosh and modern Macintosh

    Thanks for your reply. My modern Mac is a Mac Pro 5.1 running macOS Mojave 10.14.6. It's connected via ethernet to a router (Fritzbox) which acts as a switch. The Performa is as well connected via ethernet to the same router

    Transfer Data between vintage Macintosh and modern Macintosh

    Hi, I have a Macintosh Performa 475 equipped with an Ethernet card and I would like to use it to get data from my modern Mac to my Performa. I tried sharing a folder on my modern Mac and connect my Performa via Fetch to the modern Mac and FTP data to the Performa. But unfortunately, that didn't...

    Programming on an old Macintosh

    Guys, I have another quick question, my Macintosh Performa 475 has an Ethernet card built into it. I tried for a bit to get a connection to my FTP Server, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. Do you guys know a proper way, to establish a connection? Or do you know a manual I can take a...

    Programming on an old Macintosh

    Thank you so much for both your replies! I have tried THINKC Version 6 and I really like it. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get C++ 7.0 working ...yet, we will see about that. 😉

    Programming on an old Macintosh

    Hi, I know this is kind of an awkward question, but I would like to try programing something on my macintosh... just for fun😁. I know there is like Macintosh Programmers Workshop, but I can't find a .img file, which I would be able to write on a Floppy drive. There are some .image files, but I...
