Ha ha! You guys are a hoot. I have this very vivid image of an old west cattle drive going on in my head... Just replace the cattle with sharks, and the steer hands with Waterbenders. Don't forget the tornado right in the middle of it all!
So I did quite a bit of research on the shark drive. The SCSI interface cable for the Mac (if it ever did actually ship) was announced a couple of years after the drive was first introduced. This leads me to believe it is a proprietary interface, with each cable supplying a conversion. If the drive itself were SCSI, it would have had Mac support from the very beginning.
Here is the drive itself:
And here is the strange parallel interface cable:
This unit is practically new in box, even has the CompUSA receipt inside. Too bad I will never find the SCSI interface for it.
I do have an old Toshiba laptop running Windows95. I will try to salvage any data found on the disks. It was found in a storage shed.
