Chosen Solution
I pulled a SCSI hard drive from a dead Macintosh II desktop computer and would like to transfer the data to another more modern computer. Since I only want to do this one time I need an inexpensive solution to adapt the SCSI hard drive to either USB or Firewire. I could also hook up to an old PowerBook G3 to perform the transfer.
If you have a PowerBook with SCSI (pre firewire) and you can get the drive to work with that (probably OS 9 only) then you should be able to copy the contents to the PowerBook, then to a more modern format. It’s probably only a couple of megabytes anyway. You are also facing the problem “what am I going to use to open these ancient files?”
Use a SCSI to USB adapter. Here’s a link on how to do it: http://www.topbits.com/how-to-connect-sc…
