This looks cool, the FreeAgent DockStar turns any external USB drive into an Internet-connected storage device, here it is with a Macintosh SE/30 – Google Translate.
The DockStar has 128MB ram, 256MB flash, 1.2GHz cpu and an ARM processor – good for hacking it seems.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.

Just seeing that SE/30 takes me back to the laundr-O-mat. I used to put mine in a padded carrying case and take it with me so that I could work while I waited on the machines. 16 lbs of portable. Thanks for sharing that photo. Made my day.
Isn’t this a SheevaPlug?
