    Industrial Disk On Module DOM Power Supply Cable

    someone will need to confirm, but from your picture it appears to be a 2-pin micro JST connecter. not sure how easy getting a pre-made cable will or won't be, its more common to find pc power cable adaptors with 4 pin (adding the extra and and +12) then just the 2 pin variety. and the cables I...

    Is it possible to use a stylewriter 1200 on a "modern" version of macOS

    your best bet is probably to try using the CUPS driver, I haven't used myself since probably around OS X 10.6 era, but I had an old laser writer I used to use this way with no issues. obviously that was many years ago and was a lifetime ago in terms on Mac OS X changes, however as far as I can...

    BlueSCSI Issues - Bus Error

    sd card support can be a bit hit or miss at times with Arduino based project or other similar devices, generally a library such as SdFat ts used to provide support for sdcard read/write. sometimes when these libraries get updated it can cause issues with some sd cards. its not so common these...

    Pico ATX PSU kit for Macintosh SE, SE/30, 128K, and Plus

    I believe the pico varies between around 85-96% efficiency depending on the rail and there amps drawn. also im pretty sure they use a 5.5mm or larger or the centre pin dc jack should handle somewhere between 5-10amps from memory (standard/typical dc jacks are 2.1mm) when selling a replacement...

    Pico ATX PSU kit for Macintosh SE, SE/30, 128K, and Plus

    so further info in case its helpful, I just went and checked the specs out the picoATX-80 it'll and it it'll provide enough amps on the required rails but even they use a 60w 12v DC with the 80w pico. however I stand by what I said in my last post about needing at least a 80w 12v dc brick (100w...

    Pico ATX PSU kit for Macintosh SE, SE/30, 128K, and Plus

    nice design there, fwiw with a 12v 40W psi that's only about 3.3A, so it's going to be important to check exactly what the se/30 requires on each rail. I don't have a se/30 open in front of me right now but from memory the +5v rail is speed for around 6A and the two 12v rails combined are around...

    Unsupported eMac - any way to get OS 9 to show in OS X startup disk selector?

    just re-read the OP and in regards to it taking ages to finishing scanning when you use the open firmware boot picker its because the boot picker also searcher for Netboot devices and will do so regardless if you are connected to a lan or not. my understanding its it its listening for the...

    BlueSCSI updates

    you really shouldn't need to mess around with naming files with LUN ID's as I don't think the Macintosh OS really even know anything about dealing with LUN addresses (someone correct me if I'm wrong here), the LUN feature is really just a hold over form the original Zitto firmware for the sharp...

    Color Classic no longer recognizes floppy driive

    fwiw those disk cleaning kits don't always work. usually they are fine but if there's any dirt or anything backed onto the heads then a cleaning kit won't work. usually I use a bit of dish washing detergent on a q-tip followed by some IPA on another q-tip, I've found that manually cleaning the...

    Build A SCSI2SD V4.2

    here's a compiled hex file of the v4.84 firmware normally I don't like providing compiled firmware but my understanding is the the v4.2 hardware is open source, unlike the 5.x versions. though the firmware source for those also appears to be out on the internet too so in mot sure really what...

    Silent upgrade mac mini won't run os 9

    the video issues with the DVI output are probably related to the Pixel maxing out at 135mhz. those Mac minis really work best using VGA. as mentioned try holding down shift at boot, and see if you can change the rest rate as well. I've had issues in the past with the monitors control panel...

    BlueSCSI updates

    usually holding C should boot a CD-ROM drive attached to I think if I remember correctly SCSI ID3. however the command I mentioned in my last post will just force the Mac to look for a bootable device on the SCSI ID you specify ( ID 5 in my example). it doesn't matter to the Mac if the device is...

    Unsupported eMac - any way to get OS 9 to show in OS X startup disk selector?

    I used to use a tool called LeopardAssist that allowed you to do this using a GUI (works in tiger too), but I might save this script for future use. fwiw the OS X startup control panel appears to check for what version of MacRISC support is listed in open firmware. Enabling these options in...

    Build A SCSI2SD V4.2

    You need a Jtag programmer that works with Cypress PSoC devices. It’s probably cheapest to buy A psoc evaluation kit that has a programmer built in you can reuse on other psoc devices…. Thing is most are sold out or very expensive. Really unless you already Have all the parts needed then it’s...
