Apparantly some sort of removable media drive I've never heard of. I wonder if I can boot from it? That would be nice, as I just bought a Plus and a Classic, one of which has no HD...

Sounds like a Mass Micro branded 44 MB (?) SyQuest Drive, dunno tho, can you afford the penny?

Wow, two 45MB carts at a time? That would have kicked almighty arse back in the early 90's...

Sounds neat for a cent, tho!!!

I think that I have seen something like that in MacWorld from back in the day when a IIFX was like the dual 1.25GHz G4 of today, it might be an iomega bernoulli box, though I have a hunch that the carts may be sony branded. I remember seeing an ad for a 6Gig (WoW) jukebox that was the size of a HP Laserjet 4 that shuffeled those kind of disks around, I'll see if I can dig those up.
good luck

Bernoulis came in 40, 80, 120, and 250 megs, I think. Only one at a time. Turns out that the seller wants $23 for shipping, so I said no thanks! Nice guy, he let me off.

Yeah, that is nice! You're lucky he didn't give you a negative and report you to Ebay services...most sellers are more than ready to!

I have a Bernoulli 230MB drive that still works fine. I believe the lower model was 150MB; below that, can't remember. alcoa is probably right; it's a dual Syquest.
