Goes inside any Mac II style Mac (II, IIx, IIfx, IIci, IIcx, IIvi, IIvx.) Won't work in a stock IIsi, but will work if you upgrade the PSU. I don't know anyone who ever tried it in an SE/30. Might work with the rear bucket removed.
Yeah, I'm familiar with the Radius Rocket, I was just confused by what you said about it being more expensive than the computer it goes in, as I'd only shared the Mac LC price page, I was asking what you were comparing it to.

I think the snapshot in time the MacProductFinder shows only has the IIci and IIfx that the Radius would fit (although in the early days there were compatibility issues with the IIfx). So comparing new Mac prices, the IIci and IIfx cost more.

That would mean if you already had an older Mac II, you could upgrade to "Quadra like performance" for less than the cost of a IIci at half the speed.
