| Daystar PowerCache 50 MHz on SE/30 ??? | |
| Posted by: pfuentes69 on 2023-08-09 04:25:16 Hey, I got a Daystar PowerCache 50 that I was initially thinking to add to a IIci, but now I'm thinking that maybe the SE/30 could be a nicer host. Does anyone has experience with this? Where could I find the adapter board? Is it compatible with the Rominator II? Thanks! | |
| Posted by: zigzagjoe on 2023-08-09 08:36:19 @Bolle sells combo adapters that are both NICs and provide an IIci cache slot as well. I believe it is compatible with Rominator too. Otherwise you will have to hunt down one of the twinspark or original daystar adapters. | |
| Posted by: pfuentes69 on 2023-08-09 08:38:54 Thanks. I sent @Bolle a PM Actually I just need the simplest possible adapter... I have a RASCSI in the SE/30 and that gives me networking too. This is the original...  | |

Posted by: pfuentes69 on 2024-02-25 13:16:10Which adapter is that? I’d like to try that in the SE/30.That’s the original one that was supplied by Daystar… as said in the manual | |
| Posted by: JC8080 on 2024-02-26 13:33:36 I have one in me SE/30 and it works great, I think I have the original DayStar adapter. The Rominator II page specifically says it is not compatible with the PowerCache. Mac ROM-inator II | Big Mess o' Wires | |
| Posted by: ttb on 2024-02-26 14:07:29 I also run a 50MHz PowerCache in an SE/30. It runs A/UX 3.0 acceptably fast. | |

Posted by: pfuentes69 on 2024-02-28 04:32:28I have one in me SE/30 and it works great, I think I have the original DayStar adapter.I can confirm it does work with the Rominator II, as this what I have. | |
Posted by: JC8080 on 2024-02-28 05:18:39I can confirm it does work with the Rominator II, as this what I have.Good to know, thanks! I had decided not to get one based on the compatibility info on their site, I'll definitely reconsider. | |
