Re: Can anyone identify this card?

I thought so :). That was the other unusual thing I pulled from the donated apple2 all those years back.

I am wondering whether I would get away with attaching a syquest (PLI) 44MB cartridge to it for archival of many, many assorted disks...


You sure can.  Back I high school I hooked up out computer lab's
Syquest drive to my IIgs via the HS SCSI Card.  Worked like a champ!

My opinion is that if you want a high capacity external drive for the
GS, then try to get one of the IOmega external SCSI Zip/Jaz drives. They work really well and you actually have a chance at finding new
disks.  I don't know where one would find Syquest disks these days.

Bitchin'! There's one last concern before I try this: How does one use a fixed disk (or removable HDD for that matter) with a IIe?! Well... What I mean by that is the setting up and formatting etc... I'm thinking it doesn't work too well with DOS 3.3?

I've never even seen a IIe with a hard drive. You've made a n00b of me. ;)
