Yeah it’s just what’s on board. This thing needed ALOT of work when I got it. I’m just happy the POS boots. 😬

Thank you. Right now it only has 16mb ram so imma run it with 7.6.

I said F the ide to sd adapter. Ide HDD is working great! Who needs a cd drive when you can have zuluscsi? What’s the best MacOS to run in the 6360? I am running 7.6.1. I upgraded from 7,5,3. Mistake? M

That would be great!

Thank you for the tips! Unfortunately what I have found is that when I try to use the IDE to SD adapter, the computer is very unstable. It either doesn’t completely boot, freezes or bombs out. How does one trouble shoot this device? I have tried the download from Phil’s website, tried...

Anyone in this thread on this thread have experience troubleshooting an errant IDE to SD adapter? I am using a Sandisk sd card I picked up at Walmart. Maybe that’s the problem? Or the ide connection in my computer. The 1.2GB hd works perfectly though 🤔

Oh that was very kind of you to offer to help me earlier despite your being in the middle of a move. That’s interesting that the board is from a 6500. How can you tell them apart? Or did you just remember? So here is a stupid question for you…what makes a G3 a G3? Aren’t they all just...

Well I’m a bit of an idiot. The IDE to SD worked great and I followed your instructions carefully. The only thing not noted was an error I got in Etcher but things still worked. Attached you’ll see the less than ideal set up I was referring to. Is there something I should do to improve on...

When you're working on these, where do you mount your IDE to SD? I think that's where the confusion is coming. I was imagining it being on top of the IDE drive with the front bezel still on the case. This is probably not going to work. How do you do it? For reference.

Haha! I do but I don't want to fry him so you. I'm probably just being stupid and the solution will immediately reveal itself when I look at it.

Ok. I'm more worried about the 40pin.

For the molex?

I can provide pictures when I get home. The floppy drive ribbon has a lot of slack. Not the Molex to IDE Drive and 40 pin ribbon.

No, I'm probably being stupid. He IDE drive in the 6360 is connected with a 50 (I think) pin cable and a powered with a Molex. These cables have very little slack and are barely long enough to make it to the IDE drive. When I replace that drive with the IDE to SD, the cables will not be long...

The molex is long enough as is and I don't think the 50-pin connector is angled. In terms of the Molex and IDE connectors, do I need to remove the wiring harness?

Hey I was just looking at the layout of the IDE2SD board I bought and I see the space for a molex connector for power as well as the connector for the IDE cable. Hmm, what's the best way to set this up in a PPC case?

Good morning! I wanted to let you guys know that I got the darn Bluescsi to work on the Performa 6360 after much gnashing of teeth. What a pain! I tried a million things so I am not 100% sure what did the trick but here’s what I think—1. Desktop BlueSCSI, NOT db25. I was never able to get...

You might also add a thread in trading post “WTB: Zuluscsi” There might be someone in here who has an extra they want to unload for cheap. That’s how I got mine.

Maybe in the lounge? You haven’t hijacked. Were you able to try the bluescsi on a different machine? It sounds like 6360 was a bust?
