Blue SCSI for PowerBook 100

[Frederick]

The Blue SCSI board available for Powerbooks are 40 pin but the PB 100 has a 50 pin connector cable. I really would like to install a Blue SCSI to get rid of my lady Conner drive. Is there any solution?

You need the internal, desktop version.

The homepage's first image is of a desktop version, so basically anywhere you can buy BlueSCSI. I got mine from Europe as I'm British, but I think you'll find resellers in the US will have the internal desktop version too.

The PowerBook 100 uses a regular PowerBook SCSI connection. The last 10 pins aren’t used by many devices, including the BlueSCSI - they can just “hang off the end”

You do want the PowerBook version. The desktop one won’t fit.

See my old Scuznet PowerBook version to explain what I mean - the last holes on the right aren’t even populated and this particular version I use in my PB100

So from what you are saying I can plug the 40 pin Blue scsi into the 50 pin cable just aligning it to the left and it should work.
