I remember that there was some sort of unofficial tech note from Apple which
gave the pinouts for a cable hack to connect a drive mechanism from the service
spare parts kit as an external drive. I must have sneaked that drive home

died and gone to heaven!

 My wife AND my employer ignore my opinions - feel free to do the same!
