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.

WARNING

Follow the steps for connecting and using SCSI devices

carefully to avoid losing information and damaging your equipment.
