Ah yes, looks like this one as mentioned in the other thread would be the one?

The 25 pin D-SUB connector has the same signal wires but fewer ground wires. That's the only difference.

The 25 pin connector is an Apple cost reduction version as 25 pin D-SUB connectors are dirt cheap and smaller than the "Centronics" connector. 50 pin Mini-DIN wasn't really a thing in 1984/85 when Apple launched the Mac Plus.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

@smoore100 I might have some external SCSI housings somewhere...so it might depend if you want it in another housing or not?

If you don't, I'm wanting a BlueSCSI v2 at some point...just having to wait while I save up enough to buy one! :(

Thanks for the offer @smoore100

It's likely to be late July or August if I can get enough overtime in and approved (and then paid) but if you're ok with that timeline then that would work for me!

I'll ask for money as my Father's day present(s) and my upcoming birthday to go towards it.

Could you PM me the price & postage when you get chance?

I would like more details on the BlusSCSI v2. They are on ebay now for sale. Do we have to format/partition the SD card? Is that card Mac or windows compatible for file copying? Do we have verified reports of working with the Falcon? What is the wifi option.

Trying to find an option for a non-working ide buss.


Thanks,

Ken
