If it's like the multitude of SCSI add-ons for the 128K to 512K Mac, it is a
small piggyback board that plugs into the ROM sockets on the motherboard, and
comes with a cable, that allows you to put the DB25 SCSI port where the battery
cover is currently on those Macs. It probably had some sort of ROM enhancement
that allowed it to work with 800k drives.
So, no it won't work on the //c.
