8If you are connecting the Macintosh PowerBook directly to the other computer
(rather than to an external device in the SCSI chain), attach a SCSI system cable to
the other computer.
9Connect the large connector on the Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter cable to a SCSI
cable attached to the SCSI port on the last device in the SCSI chain, or to the SCSI
system cable on the other computer.
10 Turn on the PowerBook by pressing the Power key.
After a few seconds a SCSI icon appears on the screen, showing the ID
number you assigned in step 3.
11 Turn on the other SCSI devices in the chain, if any.
12 Turn on the other computer.
The PowerBook’s internal drive appears as a hard disk icon on the screen of
the computer you connected it to. You can now transfer and use files as if the
Macintosh PowerBook were an external disk drive.
WARNING
If you do not see the SCSI icon, and the computer starts up
normally or displays an error message, press the Power key to shut down
(if you can) and then immediately disconnect your computer from the
SCSI chain. (If you can’t choose Shut Down, try pressing the reset
button. If you cannot shut down your Macintosh PowerBook, you
should disconnect the cable anyway, or you may lose information.)
Then go back and repeat steps 5 through 10, making sure to use the
proper cables.
You may not be able to have password protection turned on in the
Password Security control panel while using your PowerBook in SCSI
disk mode. Turn password protection off if you experience problems.
See “How do I turn password security on and off” in the “Setting
Options” topic area of Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
