I can safely say that the hard drive will probably
be ok to let it run for a while. The ram card should
be ok indefinitely, as well as the SSC. I would get
a battery in it ASAP though. The hard drive will do
a periodic seek and will eventually have problems.
Which hard drive was it on your MicroDrive card?
I can answer better once I recall that.
