You just can't make money doing it anymore. No one is going to pay skilled labor rates approaching $100/hr for component level repair on cheap modern garbage
I love this
I recommend a shareware program called MacDisk for interacting with mac formatted 1.44MB disks on a windows PC. Works on windows 10 too. Of course you can always just use winimage or rawrite or...
Does anyone happen to have a drill template for this kind of DIY bracket?
Eh don't romanticize analog cellular too much. Yeah the audio quality was great when you were well in range but coverage was poor and you'd get crushed by static sometimes
40MB quantum in my mac classic works perfectly
the audio latency of any digital based voice service drives me crazy, I pretty much hate talking on the phone now
(never liked it a whole lot to begin with, but it was tolerable with wire speed...
it's RG for Radio Guide, but you got the 58 right ;)
I'm a mostly hardware guy but many of our most active members are mainly programmers
I think I have some docu for this drive at my office. I will check tomorrow
Is the 63MHz version really more desirable to collectors than the 83MHz variant? I'd happily trade my tested and working 63 for an 83
Clearly the solution is to give it all to me :cool:
Is it even possible to get a true copper loop phone line anymore?
OP is asking whether he can format an HD *disk* as DD, which afaik is a hard no
Good information, but not liking the SCSI interface is an incorrect opinion

Yep. I have a DIO-500 which I added a second serial port to with those ICs
The IBM 4865 external 3.5" drive has the first 4 pins of the DC-37 dedicated to power.
Pin 1 +12
pin 2 12 return (ground)
pin 3 5 return (ground)
pin 4 +5
Whether this was used for non-IBM...
not my listing, but these don't come up often so I figured someone here might be interested
...
One sold pending funds, 3 available
Nope, I'm going to keep one as a spare though
These are NOS from 1992. Aftermarket, but I tested one in my 5151 and they work fine. I have 4 available. Asking $15 shipped for one in the CONUS.
66478
They seem to be fetching about $120 USD on ebay shipped, that's acceptable if it's as good as you claim
Well my 5 pack of flybacks came in. They are aftermarket. The one I tried works fine, but it didn't fix the issue
