Need pics of various SCSI interfaces!

Does anyone know of a site with pics of the different types of SCSI interfaces (50-pin, 68-pin, 80-pin, internal, external, etc.)? I might be able to get an old ISA SCSI card for a buck or two, but I'd like to know what kind of interfaces are on it before I buy it. Thanks!
 
ummm ISA SCSI card? You do know that will be slower than your IDE hardware right?

Well I have many books and I am sure they have pics of all the types I will try to find them and scan them in if you want.
 
Do a google search on scsi connectors and you'll find thousands of pictures. This is one of the better ones.

ISA SCSI cards pretty much maxed out at Fast SCSI2 (10MBps) which uses a 50-pin connector. Anything faster was PCI.
 
Thanks for the pics! The external connector on the SCSI card is 50-pin for sure, and I'm assuming it is internally too.

I figured it'd be slow. 🙂 I don't plan on using it in my main computer. I can also get a big old 486 (I'm assuming) server and a 7-bay external SCSI enclosure for I'm guessing $25. Now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure the server actually has two SCSI cards in it, so I could run seven HDDs in the server and seven in the external enclosure if I found some cheap 50-pin HDDs. 🙂
