some photos, not going to describe how to in detail tho.
there is no discrete thermo sensor on HD unlike 2010 model.
you should update Crucial firmware to 2
http://www.crucial.com/support/firmware.aspx
Release note reads: "This is a recommended but not required firmware update. If the end user is experiencing pauses or hesitations in systems with Link Power Management ("LPM") enabled, then this update is highly recommended."
but this is "required" for at least Mac mini 2011. you will see frequent LPM freeze.
2011 Mac mini is not bootable from Crucial ISO CD image. 2010 Mac book air was bootable from it but can't connect SSD to SATA . Dead End.
I somehow manage to connect SSD to think pad and updated the firmware.
a problem is that during connecting the battery box, only click sound and LED light are ways to communicate with human, no measuring numbers like μSv/h or CPM
Here is an iphone app Geiger bot, which can show us human readable numbers like CPM, and if you know what is conversion of your geiger tube, other readable numbers like μSv/h can be shown as well.
then another problem, if you measuring it at a place where not much noise is generated, only the clicks from the box are counted, it is ok. iphone can pick the clicks generated from the battery box, but not if you are outside, noise is counted as clicks ,causing Geigerbot show high dose rate . so then I need to connect it to iphone mic directly.
iphone's 3.5 φ mini stereo plug is 4 terminals one. the plug is available here, http://www.radiocenter.jp/shop/sh45.htm .
(at first I bought ear phone with mic for iphone and tore it down, but wires of it are too thin to re-solder.)
this page is very helpful to figure out how those things should be connected, soldered.
but mine is more simple , just got 1KΩ register connected.
Oscilloscope shows 0.85V is charged to between iphone Mic and GND, and when click generated apx 1.4 v is charged. I am not sure if this number is ok for iphone , Geiger bot shows input signal not huge tho. so ,probably ok
covering the wires with a heat shrink tube.
Done ! it is working !
yet another problem: a speaker on the battery box picks some amount of sounds , which is small tho, because it is working as a microphone , I need to figure out how stop it working as a microphone.
Here is a circuit picture but this is not accurate at all but you get an idea.
