Ok I opened it up, removed the board and took some pictures. Yes - it has a large board that covers the entire front half. One of the boards is labelled "MacSnap SCSI" and they both have "Dove" on them. Please take a look at the pictures below and let me know if you can figure out what type of Mac I have..
