I'm not sure if it has been brought up on the forum yet, but has anyone gotten a SCSI2SD v5.5 yet? I just did last week, and it's a fantastic little device.
I was using a v5 inside a 3D-printed external box with the DB25 adapter, and it worked well but was very clunky and kind of a pain to use (I like to rotate my old Macs often). Then a few weeks ago I went to buy a SCSI2SD for a Mac Classic II, and saw that the 5.5 had been released. So I put my existing v5 into the Classic and started using the new v5.5 as my external drive.
This thing is fantastic! It works seamlessly just like my v5 units, but it's tiny and plugs into any Mac very quickly. As an external device, it is SO much better than the v5 in a tacky box! It takes just a few seconds to plug it into the back of any Mac I want to use or work on.
Anyone else have any experience with these? I didn't even know they had been released and am very pleasantly surprised by them.
