Re: Mac Configurations

I know that the 6360 and the 6400s both used IDE drives. I don't think
the 7200s did.

It didn't really "start" at any particular point. Low end
machines as early
as the Performa series had ATA hard drives. Better machines had SCSI
hard
drives. It wasn't until the iMac and the third G3 series that the
motherboards started shipping exclusively as ATA.

I think after the x500 series, all the low to mid range Macs had IDE, while the higher
ends kept the SCSI. So your 5300, 5500, 6500, 6300, 7500, 7600, 7200, 7220, are likely to be IDE,
while the 8500, 8600, 9500 and 9600 are likely to all be SCSI.

There was a 9000 series? I'm just drawing a blank, but I'm sure there were.
