    Nice PSU in 1995 SCSI HDD box

    I've bought 1995 external SCSI HDD box - not sure what I'll do with it but it was cheap If it was for 5.25" drive, it might be big enough to fit one of the small 486 boards I have - but it's only for 3.5" drives so I'll probably just put some SCSI drive inside.
    It has nice PSU - all caps are Nippon Chemicon except for the big one which seems to be Hitachi. The smaller caps are very close to the heatsinks but that's not a problem because there's a fan in front of them.
    That gray plastic thing on top of the front panel is removable - it's dust filter for the fan

      I have seen Hitachi capacitors before - http://www.hitachi-aic.com/english/e010.htm
      Hitachi apparently does not make low-ESR aluminium electrolytic capacitors, but these electrolytics are often made for large audio amplifiers, on-line UPS units and other industrial uses...

      There are a few full-height 3.5" SCSI hard drives around, so I guess one of them would fit...
      My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

          I have standard size 2GB Fujitsu and Quantum (around 200MB IIRC) and a big 1GB IBM 0663L12

              japlytic; Thank you very much for the info about the Hitachi caps, I was looking for their datasheet...

                  It's 2025: do you know where your 5¼" floppy drives are?
                  by eccerr0r
                  Oh wow.

                  As in the other thread I was trying to revive/re-bootstrap an old Apple IIe and wasn't successful reading or writing any disk. Both drives behave similarly.

                  Then I was wondering, what about my PC floppy drives? I have a HH 5¼" HD drive and a combo 5¼+3½ drive. I tried formatting the disk that wouldn't work in the Apple and it didn't work in the PC either!

                  Then I tried a HD 5.25 disk ... it won't even touch the disk either! Just like the Apple DD disk, "Not Ready!"

                  Weird. Seems the PC drive is having trouble clamping...

                  TV Model: Hitachi 40HYC42
                  Power Supply: 17IPS71
                  MainBoard: 17MB95M
                  Panel: VES400UNDS-2D-NO3

                  When the set came in it was dead. Fuse was open primary side and the power mosfet was shorted. So I ordered a new power supply. Now it turns on, only displays "Hitachi" and then power off red and blue led flashing.

                  I had to modify the 0ohm resistors in the led backlight of the new PS like the original power supply.
                  Is there any variants on 17IPS71 power supply's?

                  UART output pins 10 and 12 on scart connector:

                  Code:
                  12:24:04.595
                  ...

                  Help finding the correct model of a T-Con board on my Hitachi TV
                  by sotodefonk
                  Hi, I have a Hitachi tv model L47V651, there is no image, but sound and backlights turn on, so I believe the issue is the tcon board.

                  I opened the tv to access the board and took the shared pictures of the T-Con board.

                  I saw a video from shopjimmy on how to detect the model number on tcon boards, but this doesn't have a sticker like how that video showed all boards.

                  I searched the P/N number and got results with the same marking name and P/N my board has but they list other specific tv models like Vizio and Philips brand but not Hitachi.

                  Inspecting...

                  failing hard drives after sitting for years...
                  by eccerr0r
                  With the discussion about water pumps failing when cars sit for a while, I wonder what people have seen with hard drives. Do people see hard drives failing after being sat on the shelf for a long time unpowered versus a hard drive that's at least powered up at least once in a while, say, weekly?

                  Wonder if it's worth spinning up the spare spinners once in a while to keep the bearings lubricated?

                  Wonder how I should best keep my cold spares for my RAID "fresh" for eventual failures of the working drives. Was thinking about keeping a hot spare but that's another...
