Export physical HD to another Mac
All,
I have a PowerBook 190(cs) where the display died about a decade ago when the PB was in production use. There is no external display adaptor or port and I'd like to move it to another Mac. The Mac boots up, but the case is essentially totaled and I am planning to find an Mac LC model to add to my Apple collection in the near future, since I kinda don't want a 5300 type (too risky for me if I got one that was in the infamous recall in the mid 90s.)
My working knowlege on the vintage Mac has faded as time fades by, and doing quick research I don't know what HDD connection the PB used. I am assuming SCSI. It is running System 7.5.5, but I forget what "enablers" are running.
What should I expect when I would go forward with such thing? Is it as simple with New World/Intel types where I could theroetically take the HDD out from like Power Mac G3 to an Intel iMac and expect to run smoothly? Would I get the Sad Mac if this was done? Or would I have to do something more complex?
I got stuff such as old work and apps where I don't have backup disks (like the original versions of Photoshop and PageMaker, etc.) and I would love to get it on a Mac I can get to.
Thanks!
