The ProFile hard drive will only work on three computers.  The Apple ///
(which it was designed for), Lisa (for which it was first adapted to),
and the Apple // (which it was adapted to when ProDOS first came out).

To get it to work on an Apple // will require an interface card. One source
of the card is Sun Remarketing (yes, the Apple /// people).  Some dealer may
still have one in stock (My local dealer is one of a chain of 5 in the area,
and I could get the ProFile interface card for the Apple /// thru him if need
be).

Don't have my Sun Remarketing catalog, so I can't quote you a price or address.
I do believe the address is somewhere in/near Logan, Utah.
