Introducing ZuluSCSI Blaster Laptop, our latest 2.5" form factor ZuluSCSI. Available with and without Wi-Fi

[rabbitholecomputing]

Check out our latest USB-C equipped Laptop-sized 2.5" ZuluSCSI Blaster, which is available with and without the add-on RM2 Wi-Fi radio module.

DIP switches for initiator mode, SCSI termination, and debug/verbose logging are present. As with all ZuluSCSI products, the debug logging can be enabled via an ini file parameter as well.

The RM2 module enables SCSI Ethernet Daynaport emulation via Wi-Fi, and ZuluSCSI Blaster Laptop model can be purchased with or without the RM2 radio module.

ZuluSCSI Blaster Laptop is assembled with high-quality Molex-manufactured microSD card socket, as well as Panasonic-brand polymer electrolytic capacitors, and is designed to last.

DaynaPORT wifi sounds like an incredible feature to be sure, but there's one issue - changing the SSID/password is going to be problematic if it requires opening up the computer to access the SD card. Every single time a Powerbook is taken apart it's a huge risk. Would it be possible to perform these changes on the Mac side at some point in the future without any hardware change required?

I suppose in the meantime, if the appropriate cabling can be made, you could run a USB connection to where the internal modem jack would go and at least be able to access the SD card's filesystem without opening the machine.

I haven't tried this yet, but could you use https://github.com/saybur/scuzEMU to import the ini to you mac, edit it and save back to the SD?

The shared files go in a specific sub folder I think.

Yeah there isn't a way to update the INI from a utility. This would be a very nice feature, there are many systems beyond laptops that would benefit from better device control (he says, glaring at a Quadra 800)

Edit: to add, this is not a ZuluSCSI specific thing: the API used doesn't support the feature.
