Apple Macintosh Quadra 700

[date: 2014]

The System

• Apple Macintosh Quadra 700
• 1 GB SCSI hard drive
• 68MB RAM
• NetBSD
• Networked

Restoration

Bought off ebay in early 2014.

Complete disassemble and clean.

Replaced battery.

Upgraded to 68MB RAM (4MB onboard, plus 4 16MB SIMMs from OWC).

Installed NetBSD.

The hard drive is failing. Adapting a newer 68-pin SCSI hard drive via a 50-to-68 pin male/male adapter has not yet worked.
