Luke, Thanks for the quick reply. I took the classic II to a mac repair shop to have the drive installed. They claimed that they had it working and installed 7.1 on it. However, as soon as I got it home and powered it up.... all I got was the floppy with flashing "?." I tried the disk tools and I tried to install system 7 on it and in both cases the message was no scsi device recognized. I'll try to call the tech shop back, but they will not open again until Monday. I also wanted to try to get informed about the problem and possible solutions myself. Thanks.

If they don't then you'd probably got SCSI termination problems. Has this new HD ever worked in the Mac? If you just plugged it in, it will need to be formatted by something that will accept the NON-Apple drive.

It was a larger non apple drive (1gb ibm drive). Now when the computer starts up, I only get the floppy icon with flashing "?." It will proceed to start up with use of disk tools, but then states that it can't find scsi device. Any suggestions? Thanks. Mark Beadle -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
