Re: [emax] Will the drive in a macintosh classic work in the emax??????

2008-11-19 by Ted Summers

I believe that is what I used before I got Compact flash.
It was out of some old Mac version that was 20MB

Installation Tips / Recommendations now available at:
http://djtbs1. spaces.live. com/default. aspx

Pictures of the Rev 2 and 3 Emax boards at above link so you know what
you are looking for to determine whether the upgrade will work in your
Emax or Baldwin IKE.

The same rules apply that did before as per the SCSI upgrade docs at
Emulator Archive- Instructions here:
http://www.emulator archive.com/ assets/PDF/ Emax%20Plus% 20SCSI 
%20Retro% 20Instructions. pdf

a rev 3 board will take the chips- no board mods.....
a rev 2 board needs modified
a rev1 cannot be upgraded.
I have full Chipsets in stock. The cost of the kit is $50 USD +
shipping.

THIS SET DOES NOT INCLUDE A HARD DISK or the- but can be used with
SCSI Zip,
SCSI Compact Flash / SD, SCSI hard drive, etc. IDE CF works via an
ACARD SCSI adapter.....

This set does not include an "external SCSI adapter board", or
external connector.
To provide that would increase the cost of the kit.

Each set of chips will be tested in my Emax to verify operation prior
to shipping.

Kit also includes:
28-pin socket for the EPROM and some connect wire for the mods that
need to be made.
HD-capable Emax OS disk (either SE or Non-SE)

You will need-
A SCSI drive
A mounting plate (make one or a 5 1/4 to 3 1/2 in drive bay converter
kit / rails may work for this purpose also.
A power splitter - I am not including this as I have different reports
as to whether this is needed for all emax.
Soldering skills
The PDF from Emulator Archive on how to do the modification.

I need the following information from those ordering:
Is your emax rev 2 or rev 3 (so I know whether I need to supply the
socket)
Is your emax SE or Non-SE? (So I supply you the right disk).

Regards,
Ted Summers
