With the male DB25 port installed as seen below, you can use the SCSI2SD both externally and internally, which has the potential to make provisioning significantly more straightforward. Looks great @inertialcomputing. Do you know roughly when these might be available for purchase? I'm working on refurbishing a 550c. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sure, but per the attached picture, the connector is already different than the one included on the v5.5 (not 90deg). I'm just suggesting that if a different part is being used, a DB25F is more suitable for a device targeted at PowerBooks or other mobiles since most either a) have an HDI-30, b) ports concealed behind doors or overhangs, or c) don't have external SCSI at all, making direct attachment impractical / impossible and prioritizing compatibility with a cable makes more sense.

pcamen Posted November 19 Report Share Posted November 19 @360alaska I'm also looking for SCSI2SD solutions for PowerBooks. You going to make some of your adapters available for purchase? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pcamen Posted November 19 Report Share Posted November 19 (edited) Wonderful! I just bought two. Is it against forum rules to post a link to your own stuff for sale on eBay? Can I post it for you? Edited November 19 by pcamen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
360alaska Posted November 19 Author Report Share Posted November 19 I don't know that there is a rule against it. It's just my policy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
