Really!? I have been looking for a SCSI solution for 64K ROMs for years. I know the Dr. Dobbs published an article by John Bass on how to build your own SCSI adapter for the Macintosh in September 1985. It required custom drivers for each drive it was to access. Since there were no standardized drives at that time for SCSI, the Dobbs SCSI solution requires a lot of work unless one uses exactly the drive he does in the article.
I know the Bass adapter is very similar to the Dove Mac Snap adapter, however are you saying that Dove put out a version of the Mac Snap SCSI for 64K ROMs? Or was it another manufacturer? Any info on such a card would be greatly appreciated.
