Picking up tomorrow: SE/30 with Radius Pivot monitor!

I recently picked up a Macintosh Plus, which came with a portable SCSI hard drive that uses a DIN-5 socket for power (like your DynaFile) that connects to the 19-pin D-sub connector on the back of the Mac. Maybe the DynaFile used a similar cable?

I got in touch with someone who has a web page about the DaynaFile - he finally got back from vacation and sent me the specs - it needs both 5V and 12V, but apparently it uses a power brick that was relatively common with electronics of the late '80s, so I should be able to find one reasonably priced.

Okay! I just spied what appeared to be a DIN to D-sub cable in the picture you took of all the random bits you got with the SE/30, and thought that might be what it was for (since the floppy port on compact Macs outputs both 5V and 12V).
