I recently got a mac se with a bunch of spare parts. I got several parts machines of the same kind with it. I managed to get a hard drive that worked... for a few moments, then went bad. I am looking to do a fresh install of system 6 to a scsi ahrd drive. I have a left over scsi hard drive from a PPC mac, a quantum fireball, apple branded,that is known working. I can do a successful install to the second floppy drive, however it does not appear to recognize the hard disk when i try to install to it.
I have a MOUND of scsi drives of the hot swap variety for old servers, ive been trying to use those along with an adapter in the mac with no luck.
Im looking for some help to get this working with either my apple quantum fireball disk working or try to find out what it will take to get other scsi drives to work in it.
Ive read that the mac format utility will only work with apple branded drives. Weather that is the issue i am uncertain, there does not seem to be any kind of scsi disk info utility that gives much information off the base system 6.0.8 install floppy.
Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.
