yeah, it's an old drive alright, but when you're in a pinch... i use these techniques to recover data from dead ide and scsi drives all the time. it goes without saying that you should put critical data on any old drive, let alone one that has needed any kind of repair, especially unorthodox repair. in any case, i've already made an image of the entire drive using linux on my pc (gasp!). yes, i'm a pc tech, but don't hold that against me. i'm looking forward to learning macs from the se up. i have some other SCSI drives, but i can't get them to work. i must admit, i'm totally new to macs. this se/30 is my first and only mac. i guess macs require special 'mac scsi' drives? is there any way to get regular scsi drives to work with an se/30? i have a 1GB, a 2.2GB, and a 4GB. although these all work on my pc (gasp again!) and its aha1542 scsi card, it's just not seen by the se/30. is there a solution? jj -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
