Maybe not -- it's apparently not bootable. Dead
disk, it seems.
From the description, it sounds like it is just another
dead Apple SCSI
drive. I have gone thru stacks of these 40 and 80 MB drives from
Apple
(all Conner I believe, just like the one pictured). They seem to have
motor failures and stop spinning.
But the Portable uses a standard 3.5" SCSI drive, so it is fairly trivial
to swap the drive. Granted it lessens the "value" if it carries a
different drive, but since I've already been outbid, I'll stick with the
idea that it will exceed my price threshold before it sells. :-)
