Well, that might be. But I wouldn't rely on it since it seems like buying a new MO drive would have me paying out my *rse. Zip-drives are easier to come by =) But yeah, of course I'll put it to use! .. now I just have to figure out how to make my CD-drives work with this machine and then I'm...

Success! \o/ However the disk shows up like a regular hard drive rather than having a custom icon, but perhaps that's not a bother to begin? .. gonna try to install that MDF 2.3.8 driver kit again. Eureka! After HDT has had it's way with it I can re-init it using the MO Disk Formatter. It now...

I'm hijacking this thread as I've got some external CD woes that maybe you can help me with =) I've tried two different units without any success. Both shows up as SCSI devices when running HDT Primer but the aren't recognized as CD-roms even with the 5.3.2 CD-Rom software installed. The...

As mentioned earlier the only time it doesn't spit out the disk is when I've got my partition software open. The program is/was HDT Primer Personal Edition, I'm currently using it to "low-level format" one of the MO-disks. We'll see how it works after that. Haven't flipped any DIP switches or...

Well, I dunno. I'll experiment a bit and see what I can come up with =) Don't think it's a repair job to be honest, seems like a factory fix. At any rate. The drive came with 3 disks. They were in PC-format. I've extracted all the contents by connecting it to a PC machine. Despite the drive...

http://www.fujitsu-europe.com/archive/archive/00000094.htm As far as I can tell it's already in Mac mode, that's weird =)  

I tried loading the formatter first, same deal.   I did however start up my harddrive partitioning tool (can't remember what software it is right now) and while it was running it didn't eject any media. It did however show me that the drive was connected with ID 1 and was working. I can...

Yes, they are 128MB. I tried it with my retro pc and it just plain worked. That means the disks are PC formatted. But I should at least be able to Mac format them before they get ejected =P Well, first try I had the disc in when booting. As soon as I got to the desktop it ejected the disk...

Cheers, thanks! I just tried it a bit with really weird results. Using the Fujitsu exension or not does not make a difference. With Mac OS 7.5.3 properly booted it ejects the MO media as soon as I insert it, all three disks I have. No errors, no nothing. The actual drive is a Fujitsu M2511A#N  

Remember to install the Mode32 extension and enable 32-bit addressing in the Memory control panel. I'm running 7.5.3 with 32MB ram on my SE/30, runs like a breeze =)

Indeed, it's a Fujitsu. I only did a quick check yesterday as I was busy with some other tinkering. Drive probably needs some lubrication since it doesn't seem to close the door properly after ejecting media. I hope it's in working order. Otherwise I'll try to use the cabinet for a harddrive or...

Was just gifted this by my boss (the very guy who fixed my dad up with his SE/30 that I recently had techknight and uniserver repair the mobo for)  Anyways. I did a quick search and I couldn't find out much more than that this kind of media is recently common and standardised. The drive itself...

I'd prefer to see a larger one with support for a screen that can handle 512x384 =) Cool though!
