I'm just leafing through an old inCider/A+ (Feb 1990). There's an ad from
Applied Ingenuity (AI) in it. They made these InnerDrive, OverDrive and
Falcon hard disk systems for the Apple II line. Could it be such a card?

If so, take a closer look at your power suppy. AI's InnerDrive was a power
supply/hard disk/cooling fan combo connected to an interface card through
a flat ribbon cable. 

A real rarity.
