    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    I think this is the key, really. I generally see the errors start to creep in after I have to powercycle the system following a crash. Probably owing to how hard I flog the system, this is often more than once a day. I've been using HDT 2.0.6, mainly out of habit after I ran into so many...

    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    So just to wrap this up, it looks like I get bus errors in general wherever flash media are involved-- CFs in the AztecMonster, CF connected with adapter to an R-IDSC-E/R, and SD connected with bridge board to an R-IDSC-E/R. What doesn't give me bus errors are MicroDrives attached to either of...

    Mac Plus SCSI enclosure

    I'll give it a shot, er, tomorrow :) Playing with my new iPad tonight! applefreak, that's an awesome internal drive setup! I like how it piggybacks on the external port without damaging the case/board.

    Mac Plus SCSI enclosure

    Wish I could, but stuff totally fails to show up on the bus, or when it does I end up with A/UX HD SC Setup bombing :-/

    CF AztecMonsters have landed

    I now question if any of my previous benchmarks hold any validity. The 4GB Microdrive that previously posted around 500K/sec read/write, still in its external enclosure, but now bootable with a full copy of the internal drive (and the internal drive dismounted) is now almost square with the...

    CF AztecMonsters have landed

    Valid point. I've updated my page of benchmarks and included an HDD test at bottom (1591K read, 1266K write). http://zombiegargle.com/cf/ The Transcend Ultra is 100x The Transcend CFR150 is 150x The takeMS HyperSpeed is 120x The Delkin Devices eFilm is unspecified MicroDrives tend to max...

    Mac Plus SCSI enclosure

    I'm definitely interested, that would be fantastic!

    Mac Plus SCSI enclosure

    Greetings! Can anyone recommend specific* external SCSI enclosures that are known working with the Plus? Here's why I ask: my Plus only wants to talk to one particular drive (an Apple 40MB unit pulled from my SE/30) in one particular enclosure (a no-name beige rectangle with a pair of HD50...

    Since I lack write rights to the wiki, here are my collected CF AztecMonster benchmark results, including two MicroDrives: http://zombiegargle.com/cf/

    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    I wonder if it was some sort of pre-generated tracking number similar to what the UPS website creates. In any event, I've received the same e-mail, and my shipment is indeed in the system. Tracking number: EJ078980535JP Date: Oct 3 17:22 Status: Posting/Collection Location: KANAZAWA Branch...

    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    The PCD-50B is a LUN-based device - each card reader appears as a separate LUN - and due to limitations in the SE/30's or System 6/7's SCSI implementation, it's only able to see the first unit in the device, the PCMCIA reader. Inserting a card into the CF slot causes the SE/30 to lose its mind.

    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    Guess nobody else has a PCD-50B, then :?: I actually ordered one of the AztecMonsters shortly after making my original post in this thread, and was told the same thing (factory has production problems; it will be ready 10-14 days later) that I had been told fully two weeks earlier when I...

    SE/30 bus errors writing CF in a PCD-50B

    I wonder if anyone else has encountered issues with constant bus errors being thrown when writing (including copying within the device) to a CF card in a PCMCIA-to-CF adapter in a PCD-50B SCSI card reader? -External SCSI box has a terminator attached. -The PCD-50B does not provide...
