[SPARCbook] Sparcbook 3GX drive or info needed

[chase rayfield]

I bought a caddyless and driveless 3GX recently. I seems to boot up just fine to the prom and passes diagnostics. I Also bought 2 32Mb sticks to upgrade it to 64Mb ram. I also hope to rebuild the battery pack. Hopefully with significantly better capacity.


Does anyone have a drive or caddy? Also if not I may end up making my own makeshift drive out of a powermonster CF to scsi adapter and possibly custom pcb or cable. But, that leaves me wondering what the exact type of connector i need is.

it appears similar to SCA-2... I'd need a male connector on the drive. the 3GX manual and powermonster CF adapter manual at least give all the pinouts so it should not be too hard to make an adaptor for it to my sparcbook if I was sure of the physical connector type.

If I can get that done I would then need a caddy... perhaps someone could 3d scan thier drive caddy?
