I have an SE/30 that works great, except I can't get it to detect the internal SCSI hard drive.
Booting from a 7.0.1 Disk Tools disk, I can run HD SC Setup but it tells me that no suitable SCSI devices were found.
The drive spins up fine, but the activity light never blinks. I tried pulling a working 42 S drive from a Classic II, but it does the exact same thing as the 80 S originally in the SE/30.
I thought the issue might be the caps, so I did a full recap of the logic board using the following:
1x 1uf 50v Radial Electrolytic
1x 220uf 16v Axial Electrolytic
1x 470uf 50v Axial Electrolytic
10x 47uf 16v Radial Non-Polarized Electrolytic
I used SMD291 in removing the SMD Electrolytic caps and in replacing them.
I also replaced the PRAM battery.
Once everything was back together, I flipped the switch and... exact same issue. Except the sound works now. I forgot it was even broken.
So I'm pretty much back in the same spot. There's always a chance I did something wrong, since this is the first recap I've ever done.
At what points could the issue be?
