I bought this ISA card, it seems to have 2 SCSI 50 pin ports and lots of ram... no idea what it is for.. 😕

my guess off the top of my head, its some sort of old raid card with a lot of ram for cache or a scsi/cache combo card.

Pretty sure they were called Caching Disk Controllers, I vaguely remember a card like that in my fathers 386 machine in the early 1990s, around 2mb cache on his, not sure if it was IDE or SCSI
Sup. I like computers. Are you a computer?

it's not scsi.
it's going to be an expanded memory board for some proprietary computer. or a memory board for some neighboring isa card.
with 72 pin simms, I'd guess the latter.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

It's probably for a server. It's a memory buffer of some kind, and I would guess it's related to networking or printing.

I thought those ports looked fishy
