Because only the first-gen Yosemite board had ADB. They reworked the board for the second and later generations and removed the ADB.
My B&W is out in the workshop and I have to admit that I haven't taken a closer look, and from what you're saying it wouldn't be any good anyway then as it's a 450MHz G3, i.e. 2nd generation and therefore no ADB. Hmm... :o/
Oh well, looks like my Sawtooth will be the heart of my Macintosh IIg ("g" for G-Mac).
Thanks everyone for the info!!
That would be news to me! I've never heard of a B&W that DIDN'T have ADB. To my knowledge, the only major change to the board from the early revision isn't a physical change at all, but a change in the IDE controller chip to a newer version which had better support for slave drives. The early controller chip caused data corruption on slave drives, hence the change. They also changed the drive sled in the bottom of the case to a version which holds two (stacked) drives. The Rev 1 machines only hold one drive. I've had both revisions and both had ADB ports.
