the only problem with that is that they are kindof more expensive than I want them to be
I dunno but the cheapest I found for a full height (really its double hight of cd drives but..I guess that's the standard way of measuring) scsi case was like $70 and I don't think it fed out to a mac external scsi port anyone know a cheap case that can do this? it wouldn't be too hard to make a case with a PSU a fan and room for a drive, I could even put the boot drive in there with it and keep the case cooler inside - Otto Hansen -----Original Message----- From: Quadlist [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of the pickle Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 11:06 PM To: Quadlist Subject: Re: hard-drive install problem At 22:53 -0500 on 14/08/02, otto hansen wrote: >ok im gonna buy a 50watt or so powersupply and build an external case with >it (I was planning on doing it anyways since it doesn't fit) > >my only problem is that I have searched and searched and I cant find any way >to get from the external scsi port on the back of the computer into the >standard ribbon cable port on the harddrive, is there any way to do this or >should I just do as I was planning and run a bit of ribbon out the back of >the case to my external case? Why not just use a normal external HD case but put a high-capacity PSU in it? They have normal SCSI connectors on them, which will simplify your life a lot. -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
