At least mine has four. I’m probably going to 3d model a non destructive way of holding the led to the faceplate specifically and not the drive cage.

Interesting. Someone must have been in this Mac, as the drive was replaced with a quantum LPS (low profile, SCSI edition) and the tray was discarded as well. My tray doesn’t look like that, and there’s no led either. I plan to use a bluescsi instead as the heads are damaged in the LPS, so I’ll...

well i have a ton of these LED's pulled from 486 and pentium systems that used activity LED's that were connected to drives directly, so i should be able to adapt one of those, and just solder directly to J2 on my drive. from there i could either superglue or tape to the original light pipe.

I’m working on restoring yet another Macintosh SE, and I found that the system had been upgraded with the maximum ram amount, as well as a quantum prodrive LPS. The drive was put in without an activity light, and the original is not present in the case. I am wondering if there is any way to make...

Definitely agree there, my grandmother loves using her iMac. Definitely super easy to set up to be accesible.

Use enough flux, wick, and a wide chisel tip. Soldering gun will help and you can preheat the board for better results as well as reflowing the solder before removing it. Use a snug nozzle on dip pins, and also wiggle the chip when you are done and don't pry, as it can rip pads off. Remove the...

you are definitely correct, I used to have a 15" 2009 i7 mac that I used for many years, should have kept it. Funnily enough this machine was also a Core 2 Duo.

I didn't even put mine back in. Slot is emply lol

Nice, hope it works out well for you! I'm sure you know how to install sockets already

I should test out my Powermac G4 and G4 Aluminum on this.

Fixed it. Tore it down completely then built it back up. Made a new universal installer of 10.4 and installed through target disk mode on a machine with a much more stable and quicker drive. Then, installed the update. Everything seems stable for now.

This macbook was 19.99 at the shop I went to, having a few bins of stuff. I definitely want to try turning it on and testing it with my benchtop supply

I wonder if they still make sockets out of that tough alloy like material.

That should work just as well. For me it depends on plastics used and pin quality. With the same description I am sure it will do great

When I downloaded shuriken, it was a folder am I opened it there was three folders. In folder 1 haven't download link for 10.4.11 update, I did that and then it crashed right before the download completed.

I use these. That's a Digikey key link but I'm sure you can find them on Mauser. In reality any 64 pin DIP socket works but I prefer machined pin sockets

Does anyone have a good iso or dmg i can burn to a disc?

okay, this is frustrating. I swapped out a working pram from another system so: 1GB ram SD to IDE adapter (64GB, SDXC) Installed from target disk mode via another system. Used a download link from shuriken to start downloading 10.4.11, a little before the download is complete it crashed again...

Hi. Today I found a unibody 2009 13" MacBook Pro at the thrift. Here is what it looks like: I noticed that the palmrest had some very bad indents in it. Upon further inspection, it seems someone else has been inside the MacBook. A few screw heads were definitely showing signs of use...

Ahh, okay, i will have to test out my own later and see if that makes a difference
