    The Main Setup Hacks in progress thread.

    This is my current "homelab" setup I've got going on, while in the process of trying to get my network at home semi organized.  blue HP is acting as a router running OpenWRT, Unifi 8 port switch, Unifi controller,  the Mac Mini is running Plex, the Raspberry Pi 4 runs octoprint and controls my...

    Files off an old SCSI Mac

    You might be able to use a SCSI PCI card, make an image of the drive, and boot that off of an emulator, (sheepshaver or something?), and get the files off using that. But I agree with what LaPorta said, finding a member here willing to do it may be the cheapest/easiest way

    Major Score! 8600 with Sonnet CPU, 3DFX card, Etc

    I think eraser started the whole new ribon thing, and then maceffects took over(but I don't think he's doing that anymore as he has his hands full with the cases) The ebay link says it has 1 year warranty and the dude has really good feedback, so could be worth buying it from him

    A Perfect Condition SE/30

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVNHC4td7MQ I've never done retrobriting myself yet, but I'm planning on trying the method that he trys about 10 minutes in since I don't really have a good spot to do it outside.  He seems to do a pretty good job.  8bitguy has done a similar method to a...

    Torbar's Conquests

    I was surprised you didn't grab them before me! Good luck with the Classic, looks to be in decent shape from the pictures

    Torbar's Conquests

    Figure doing a conquest topic seems to be a trend, so I figure I'll do one too rather than individual topics for each find. A buddy of mine was looking for a compact Mac to hook up to his Emulator II synth since the software for it was only written for classic Mac OS, so in keeping an eye out I...

    SE FDHD Estate Sale

    I don't know if it was someone did all that work, as I got an SE FDHD a couple of years a go with the same thing, and it didn't look like the socket was added after the fact.  Maybe some revision SEs have the wired in batteries, and some have the socket?

    Yellowed(brown?) Performa 550

    I have some leftover woodgrain vinyl from a woodgrain pentium build I did a while ago(inspired by LGR's woodgrain 486) Luckily that stuff is pretty easy to remove, so I might give it a try

    Yellowed(brown?) Performa 550

    Yeah, that was my other thought.  Either make it black, or even some other color(gray?  wrap it in woodgrain vinyl?)

    Yellowed(brown?) Performa 550

    Got this from a buddy of mine,  no hard drive but at least boots to the question mark.  Very yellowed though, might be a good candidate to retrobrite

    RaSCSI Development Thread

    Good point on using it externally, never even considered that to be fair.   If the rascsi works with the Pi Zero though, I have a decent amount of spares of those

    RaSCSI Development Thread

    I've definitely considered the SCSI2SD and will probably go with that for some of my machines, but I have a good amount of machines that I don't use often enough to justify the $50+ pricetag on.

    bump.  Internet would be nice, but to me at least that's not as important as HDD emulation

    RaSCSI Development Thread

    Has anyone successfully gotten this to work on a Mac yet? I have a question with how this works if I have some boards made.  Is the pi getting power from the floppy connector through the GPIO pins?, or does it need its own power source.  I'm assuming the former since it appears the power line...

    Rescued an SE from a life of being used to hold up a sign

    I haven't done much troubleshooting yet(have a couple of other projects I'm working on first), but what lead me to the flyback is the dead mac scrolls.  Would definitely be good if it wasn't the flyback.   What're your thoughts the best way to determine what the issue is?  Inspect the analog...
