General Information
The 630 was a hybrid of a Quadra and an LC in a sleek new case. It had an internal IDE hard drive (the 630 was the first Mac to use the IDE bus), and an optional CD-ROM drive. It sold for $1,200, and was also released as the LC 630, and the Performa 630, 630CD, 631CD, 635CD, 636, 636CD, 637CD, 638CD, and 640CD, each of which was bundled with different software, accessories, monitors, and hard drives (some Performas had a 68LC040, and several were also availavle with a 25 Mhz 486SX DOS card). The Quadra 630 was discontinued in August 1995.
Codenames: Crusader, Show Biz. Originally shipped with system software 7.1.2P and system enabler 405.
ROM
1MB ROM. AppleTalk version 57.0.4.
TV Tuner
The TV tuner module turns the computer into a television receiver, complete with remote control. The features of the TV tuner module are similar to those of the TV tuner in the earlier Macintosh TV computer, with two improvements: the TV picture is in its own window on the desktop, and the TV signal is carried in YUV format for improved picture clarity.
Reviews
In August of 1994 Apple Computer Inc. released a new line of their popular Macintosh computer. The models introduced are the Quadra 630, LC630, Performa 630, Performa 630CD, Performa 635, Performa 636, and the Performa 636CD. All the models are similar, such as case design, hard drive capacity, and ports, but there are some differences. The Quadra 630 is the only model to have a full MC68040 with the floating Point Unit(FPU) for math intensive tasks and is geared towards businesses. The LC is for the educational market and the Performa models are for the consumer channels and come in many different configurations. This review will focus on the Quadra 630, but should also apply in part to the LC and Performa models.
What you get for $1189 (street):
- 1 Quadra 630 with 4megs Ram, 250meg IDE Hard Drive, 1.44mb floppy
- 1 Apple Desktop Mouse II
- 2 Power Cables (why 2?)
- System 7.12P or System 7.5 (depending on when purchased)
- 2 Manuals (Getting Started, Macintosh Reference)
- 1 Apple Resource Guide
- 1 Warranty registration card
- System Disks
- EWorld software installed on the hard drive
The Specs
The Quadra 630 is powered by a Motorola MC68040 with FPU running at 33MHz (a tad slower than the Quadra 950), according to Apple it is a 33/66MHz chip. What this 33/66 marketing gimmick means is that the internal sync clock is running at 66MHz and the system bus is running at 33MHz. This new terminology has caused allot of confusion, one salesman at a local computer superstore swore that it was a 66MHz machine and you could switch between the 2 speeds (really!!) . Not so.
- 4MB DRAM on the motherboard.
- 1 72-pin DRAM SIMM socket (80ns or faster, up to 32MB).
- 1MB ROM.
- 1MB video memory (not expandable).
- 1 LC compatible PDS slot.
- 1 Communication slot for modem or Ethernet card.
- 1 Video slot with DVA for a video input card.
- 1 internal port for a TV tuner card.
- 1 internal 250MB IDE Hard Drive.
- Energy Star compliant
The ports on the rear of the unit include an ADB port, two serial ports, monitor port, SCSI port, 8bit mono sound input and 8bit stereo output ports. The motherboard slides out the rear of the unit, making upgrades very easy. The front of the unit has the SuperDrive, space for an internal CD-ROM, and three new features. These features are Up/Down volume buttons, a Headphone jack and an infrared sensor (for Sony remotes). An internal Power Supply will take line voltages from 100-240 volts AC. Power consumption of the Quadra 630 is 45 watts. The case design is unique in that it is made up of 5 stylish plastic panels that snap on a solid metal frame, the Q630 weighs in at 17 lbs. (7.7 kg) and measures 12.6S x 16.5S x 4.3S.
SET-UP
Setting up the Quadra 630 was straightforward, take the computer out of the box, attach the power cable, keyboard, mouse and monitor and turn it on. The system software as well as E-world comes pre-installed on the hard drive, though the system software also comes on floppy disks. The Quadra 630 came with System 7.12P and a coupon for a TfreeU ($10 shipping) copy of System 7.5. Quadra 630Us shipping now should have System 7.5 installed. I did encounter one problem setting the Mac up, and that was when I installed Ram Doubler 1.5 (more on that later).
I have just installed System 7.5 and it runs much faster than System 7.12P, though in itUs basic configuration it uses 2.5MB of ram.
THE IDE HARD DRIVE
IDE stands for Intelligent Drive Electronics, and the Quadra 630 is the first desktop Macintosh to use this technology though it has been used for years on DOS computers. The internal IDE drive is 250MB in size and has an access time of around 15ms (my old Quadra 660avUs internal drive had an 18ms access time). There are two hard drive formatters included on the Disk Tools floppy, Apple HD SC Setup for SCSI drives, and Internal HD Format for IDE drives. The IDE formatting software works much like itUs SCSI counterparts, though partitioning is not available. I have only run across two programs that do not work with the IDE drive, one being SCSI evaluator (still works with SCSI drives that are hooked up), and Mac Bench 1.1 (when it preforms tests on the internal HD it freezes). I have heard of some programs that format or test SCSI drives which will not work with the IDE HD, but this seems obvious. Those worried about seeing an IDE drive on a Macintosh need not worry, it works fine and youUll not even notice that itUs IDE.
I have an APS 105MB Syquest hooked up to the external SCSI connector and it works flawlessly, and IUd swear itUs now quicker than when on the Quadra 660av.
SOUND
Sound input through the sound-in jack is limited to 8bit 22KHz mono. Sound output is 8bit 22KHz stereo. If you have an internal CD-ROM or TV/Video System, then the sound is passed through and up to 16bit 44KHz stereo sound output is available. Also with the TV/Video system you can record Quicktime movies with stereo sound. A nice feature if you have the Apple TV/Video System and the internal CD300i+ is that you can have 3 different volumes levels, one for the CD, another for the TV, and one for system sounds.
VIDEO
The 1MB of internal video DRAM is capable of supporting monitors up to 16inches (832x624) at a depth of 8bits (256 colors). At 640x480 it can display up to a 16bit depth (thousands of colors). The Video DRAM is not expandable, so if you require a larger monitor or a 24bit (millions of colors) display, a PDS video card is required. The speed of the display is slightly faster than the Quadra 605. According to SpeedOMeter though, the Quadra 630Us display is faster than the Quadra 660av, though I have my doubts about this. Ram Doubler will degrade the video performance by up to 34% depending on what bit depth is selected.
MISCELLANEOUS FEATURES
Energy Star compliance is a feature that I have longed for. Using the CPU Energy Saver control panel, the idle time before the machine shuts itself off can be set, anywhere from 15 minutes to twelve hours. Also specific times and dates can be set as well for the shut off. The control panel can also be set so that it will not shut down if the modem is going,the busy cursor is on or a sound is playing . Another control panel, Auto Power On/Off can be used to turn the computer on at specific times and dates, or if there has been a power failure it can turn the mac on again.
An infrared remote can be used to turn the mac on/off and adjust the volume. Any Sony TV remote should work. If you have the TV/Video system the remote can be used to control the CD, change channels, adjust the volume, mute, run and quit the video software.
The Video slot has a provision for a DVA connector if you are using the Apple Video System. DVA (Digital Video Analog Audio) is similar to the DAV slot on AV Macs, the difference being with the sound. Nothing at the moment is available for the DVA connector, but IUm sure cards will come out offering features such as MPEG playback, and full screen full motion video recording and output at or near broadcast levels.
UPGRADE OPTIONS
- Apple Express modem card $199 - This fax/modem card is based on AppleUs Express modem and supports
speeds up to 14.4bps and fits in the communication slot.
- Apple Video System $149 - The Video System card plugs into the video slot and provides composite
video-in, S-VHS video-in, and stereo sound-in. It can be used to capture still images or QuickTime movies. Also included is AvidUs Videoshop 2.03 software on CD-ROM.
- Apple TV/Video System $249 - This is a two card package and includes the Video System card as well
as a cable/TV tuner card and an infrared remote control. The tuner card plugs into a special ribbon connector near the top of the Quadra 630Us case. Also included is AvidUs Videoshop 2.03 software on CD-ROM.
- Apple Presentation System $299
The presentation system is a small box that plugs into the monitor port, allowing output to a TV or VCR. Other features include video mirroring, PAL & NTSC output, composite and S-VHS output connectors.
- Apple Ethernet card $99 - There are two types of Ethernet cards available. 10BASE T (twisted
pair) and 10BASE 2 (thin coaxial). Either of these two cards go into the communications slot.
- Apple PPC upgrade daughter board $n/a - This card will supposedly offer a 66Mhz PPC 601 processor in a
daughter card which plugs into the 68040 socket. The 68040 plugs into the PPC card, and you can switch between the two processors (not on the fly). It will require System 7.5 . No price has been set ($599 is what I hear), or release date (October?).
- MPEG Card $n/a - This fall an MPEG playback card is slated to come out for the Quadra
630. It will supposedly offer 24bit video, CD-i compatibility, as well as MPEG support. It will plug into the PDS slot and Video/DVA slot( if you have the Video System, there is a DVA pass through connector on the card). Price, probably in the $300 range.
SHORTCOMINGS & PROBLEMS
I like to Quadra 630 but there are a few shortcomings and I had a problem with Ram Doubler. It seems that when I installed the Ram Doubler 1.5 software, it trashed my finder, causing the Quadra 630 not to boot up. The solution was to boot up with the Disk Tools floppy and drag the Finder and System suitcase to the trash, and then re-install the system software. I re-installed Ram Doubler 1.51( the latest update) and it works fine (sort of) with no noticeable slowdown of the CPU, FPU or disk, though it does degrade video performance by as much as 34%!!! This could be due to the video DRAM being similar to the conventional memory.
I would have liked to see two DRAM SIMM sockets on the motherboard, there is defiantly room for two, hopefully a SIMM doubler or stacker will come out to solve this. (Apparently some Quadra 630Us have started to appear with an extra SIMM socket, this extra socket is for the video DRAM, as there is none on the motherboard on these models. The beta units did have this extra video SIMM socket, but the unit I have does not. )
The limitations of the 1MB of internal video memory, while the itUs adequate for a 14S display in thousands of colors, any larger display is only 256 colors and only up to 832x624. A larger display will require a video card in the PDS slot.
The 8bit mono sound input really bothers me, granted I can get 8bit stereo sound-in but only with the addition of the TV/Video card. I would have paid an extra $50-$100 for 16bit sound.
Overall I am quite pleased with the Quadra 630 despite the few shortcomings. All the software I had on my old system works fine and I have not had any real compatibility issues besides Ram Doubler. Compared with the Quadra 660av which I owned before this, the Quadra 630 out preforms it and is very STABLE.
