Using your Macintosh PowerBook as a hard disk

You can purchase a cable called the Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter that lets you connect your Macintosh PowerBook to another computer as a hard disk. The PowerBook internal drive appears on the desktop of the other computer as a hard disk icon, and you can transfer information between the computers by dragging files. This feature is called SCSI disk mode.

The Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter cable is dark gray, is about 10 inches long, and has 30 pins.

IMPORTANT Whenever you use your PowerBook in SCSI disk mode, be sure that the power adapter is plugged in. If you connect the PowerBook as a SCSI disk under battery power, the battery’s low-power warning will not be displayed and the computer may shut down because the battery is drained.
