Locked blueSCSI (SD card) disk
Posted by: gregoireg on 2022-10-26 21:43:55
On a Powerbook 145B, my blue SCSI disk appears as locked and I can't write to it. This happens even if I boot the Powerbook with the internal hard-drive or the blue SCSI (SD card) disk.

Am I missing something? Is there a setting somewhere to lock/unlock blueSCSI disk?

Note that I have an Apple HDI-30 cable from the powerbook to a DB-25 port which is connected to the blueSCSI device.

The Open Retro SCSI server in Discord has dedicated support channels for both BlueSCSI and RaSCSI - I recommend it if you don’t get answers here.

Thank you for the suggestion. For the records, the software disk file (found on a RaSCSI related website) was the issue. In other words, it was not a hardware issue. This file disk always appeared locked. I created another hda file disk and it was writable from the Mac on the same SD card and the same BlueSCSI adapter.
