80MB Hard Drive: External to Internal Conversion



My 80MB external hard drive worked fine upon arrival. However, after I
took it out of its case and made it an internal drive, it won't boot.

The modified drive is probably not terminated automatically. To see if this is
the problem, put a SCSI system cable with a SCSI Terminator on the external
SCSI port. If it boots with the external terminator, then you need to have the
jumpers on the bottom of the drive set to terminate it. Contact your authorized
Apple service provider for this.
