The RaSCSI is MAGIC for Old Macs (and Much More!)

Today we're checking out the RaSCSI, a device that connects to a Raspberry Pi, and lets it communicate directly with the SCSI bus on your vintage Mac (and other machines too!)

Using the RaSCSI software, you can emulate drives, networking adapters, and even cool stuff like video cards are possible (in the future). There's amazing functionality in the web interface, including absolute magic like download a file from the internet, and mount it inside an HFS cd rom image on the fly! Getting files from the web onto a vintage Mac was never easier.

We also have the BEAUTIFUL PotatoFi case, an Apple-esque Snow White design language case for the RaSCSI and Raspberry Pi together.

Let's put this stuff together, and see just what it can do!

I've got a TON of links for you today!
