Has anyone ever seen this card, and possibly have detailed information about
it? It's a Synetix flashcard:

It looks to be a very early memory card that acts like a disk-based device.
I'm curious to see whether or not someone got it to work on ProDOS, will it
work on a IIgs, etc. I don't have the card/box... I just came across this
photo.
I found only one web site that mentioned about this card, and it's written
in Korean. Translating it, I get the following:
"The Synetix the RAM which is sold with the name which is a Flashcard Apple
II Solid-State disk - with the disk card, DOS 3.3, CP/M and the utility
which supports a PASCAL system was together supplied. The memory dosage is
classified corresponds into 5.25 inch flow blood drive dosage of Apple II
147KB with the model (}m{2201) 294KB with the model (}m{2202) of two boat
dosage. The Apple after being affixed in II expansion slot, the user 1~2 the
righteousness RAM - it will be able to use the FlashCard with the disk. For
the compatibility of the CP/M and PASCAL use it promoted the fact that it
will affix the FlashCard in slot 5 times of Apple II from the Synetix. It
will affix the FlashCard of two overs and it will be able to use. In
generality DISK II it compared and speed of 500% over when it put out a
provision but the all the member, the data all disappeared and, data - for a
store and a protection the battery - it will be able to use a backup option
in order, from the Synetix."
Gotta wonder sometimes about computer-assisted translators... BTW, the
Korean site is quite interesting:
