Thank you, Dean, for your help. This particular Q650 came to me without ever having a CD-Rom (just recently added an AppleCD 300). The AppleSpec says it has internal CD-Rom support so I'm assuming that would be a shelf/drawer/space as well as SCSI/power connectors. It's an (older) Apple/IBM HDD ~ thank goodness the specs are available on-line.
Sounds like Christian @ sur-tech is your go-to-guy :) Ample RAM is always an issue, huh (sure doesn't come up often at eBay)?! We've been finding parts at a local store that is in the refurbishing (rehabilitation) business ~ noone there knows Mac, and Mac parts are few and far between (Surprise - NOT!). The biggest RAM module I can get there is 4MB, LOL For my own benefit, I would like to know more about the functions of JP4 (Disabale Auto Spin-up), JP5 (Disable Unit Attention) and JP7 (Disabale TI Negotiation) ~ the lables are offering no clues ;). Maybe IBM has a 'Glossary of Terms' somewhere in their support pages, hmmmmm. greatful -----Original Messages----- From: "Dean Arthur"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Quadlist"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Jun 13 18:43:12 PDT 2002 Subject: Re: Installing a 2nd HDD >Somewhere I downloaded a Q-650 manual which gave pins to jumper on a 50-pin data/4 >pin SCSI Addressing and 4-pin power connector for the various SCSI addresses.
