I’ve never heard of that! I’m gonna have to give it a look. That said, have you seen https://recon-68k.github.io/ which I suspect uses the same connectivity?

Anyone who knows me would know that I staunchly believe in the abolition of capital punishment. However, I feel that a reasonable exception would be whoever designed the case for the Quadra 800.

Please let us know if you can get it to work, I'd love to get a portable CD drive for my 2400/180 some day.

I'm gonna have to have a go at this sometime. I've got 2 full working 500 series, and a bit of a messy one, but only 1 PSU between them and I bet it's gonna go pop soon.

That is an incredible result! I'd never thought of using body filler for such a repair.

Well that is unfortunate. You could possibly find a new tray on eBay, they do come up from time to time.

Are you trying to pull it up, as in if it’s on its screen and you’re pulling towards the ceiling, or pulling towards you? In my experience they need just a good hard yank (as the actress said to the bishop). I’ve not yet broken a panel by doing it this way Of course with the plastics getting...

The Workstation/Portrait Video Card has unpopulated sockets for what I presume is a VRAM upgrade, but I can’t find anything documented about it, I can’t even find the original manual (if one ever even existed). Is anyone aware of any information about these sockets and the chips that are...

Oh fab! I will have a look at that later today.

Yep sensible to work on a solid foundation rather than add features that just compound existing issues.

You’ve done some amazing work there @wottle, you’ve earned some time away! I can’t promise you won’t come back to 100 feature requests though! 😅

Here’s a handy table that lists the capabilities of built in file sharing vs appleshare versions www.applefool.com/se30/sites/TA21611.html

Sounds perfect. I’ll have a play with it later on! Thanks

Yep, my memory is getting bad in my old age.. just had a look at my MDD 1ghz G4 with FireWire 800 and it only does USB1.1 under 10.4.

My memory may be wrong, but as I recall when they officially announced USB 2 support with the later MDDs (the FW800?) that enabled USB2 support on the original MDDs that had the correct chipset. What OS is your MDD running?

Amazing work! I have a few other ideas that I’m trying to think of the best way of describing so will log a request when I’ve got the thoughts sorted in my mind

This is an amazing bit of work! I've been setting it up and playing with it this evening and it works almost perfectly. I've put in one bug report and a few feature suggestions on the GitHub repo, but they're very minor.. I'm looking forward to cataloging my collection with this!

I'll second this. I spent forever troubleshooting an SE/30 board which had the same symptoms on 3 different analogue boards. I was convinced it was the logic board as they all worked fine with the other boards I had. As it turned out, all three of those analogue boards were causing the same...

I just happened to have an open 6200 in front of me at the time. :D.
