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...
