SE - Unknown 37-pin connector on back

SE - Unknown 37-pin connector on back Networking 10 posts Feb 6, 2014 — Feb 6, 2014
Any clue on this one? 37-pins if my eyes are right.

Some form of Serial Networking TMK. Cisco used DB-37 for some networking equipment.

Update: Yeah. RS449 networking would be my guess.

Pretty sure it's the card for the Apple PC 5.25 drive (which used DB-37) - both the card and the drive are somewhat hard to find.

Yeah thats true. It probably is the FDD card.

Thirded. It's very likely the PC Drive card.

Interesting. This is not the Mac I bought, but its a Mac that had a much clearer pic. On the auction I won I had to run the image through Photoshop to clarify it. Looks like it could be a Mac86 card too (which would use the PC drive). Guess I will find out in a week or so.

It's likely just the Macintosh SE PC 5.25 floppy interface card. One of my SE's had one. Now, CelGen has it in his collection. Traded for the Nubus version. IIRC, Maceffects Marc has the drive for sale on his evilBay account.

I saw the drive, gonna wait for another opportunity. I paid $30 for the SE. So either way, it was a decent find. I will update when I know for sure what it has then sell off on of my SEs. I don't need two.

If it is the Apple PC floppy card, I have a matching drive I could swap for something.

i got one of those Mac SE floppy cards too.

if you don't work a deal with unity i would like to work a deal with you on that drive… — for my personal collection.
