Needed to dump an old SCSI disk. The only thing I have with SCSI is a beige G3 PowerMac. Had to re-jumper the drives and putz around with ID bits.

It already had a disk dual-booting OS 9 and OS X. That one made some bad clicking noises...went away after a few reboot cycles. Phew.

At least it already had OS X. Now dd-ing the target disk out through SSH at 600 kbps. Had to use a second laptop because all my 1+ meter Ethernet cables are being used. Didn't think about that until it was too late.
