To install the network card, you need the torx tool to open your SE/30. The SCSI adapter will use an external power brick, and connects with a SCSI cable which might not be bundled. In both cases, you need a driver disk that matches the card or adapter. Some drivers may not be compatible with Open Transport. The SCSI adapter may be slower than the card, or you may not notice any difference. There are some reports that the SCSI devices are troublesome, and some reports that Asante cards need to be connected to 10BaseT hubs rather than directly to 10/100 equipment. If you need an ethernet adapter for any Mac, contact me off-list. Bryan Kattwinkel mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

SE/30 Ethernet Card now works!!!
Made the golden mistake to changing to things at once... now I have a 32Mb SE/30 with ethernet. Sweet. Thank you for everyone's help. I have to say that, once the card was FPU-less and not holding back bootup, it was a doodle to configure - as soon as I checked the Network Control Panel the EtherTalk option was there - no hunting down for some esoteric driver for a card I don't even know the name off. Why are peripherals like this anymore... I have a Nubus ethernet card and a RasterOps Painboard Li in my IIfx and despite having installed System 7.53, System 6, A/UX and now MacOS 7.6.1 after clean wipes each time both cards always work just as well, cuz RasterOps doesn't exist anymore! As far as I can tell the Paintboards drivers are in ROM or Flash ROM... surely this is much better solution for add on cards, rather than discs that just get lost. Ben.
