You are purchasing a Corvus Systems 20MB hard-drive controller card with its cable and a Corvus diagnostic disk.
This hardware came with an Apple III system and was also evaluated with an Apple IIe. The card and connected Corvus drive showed signs of normal communication, but the password-protected drive prevented a complete functional test.
Included

- Controller cable
- Corvus diagnostic disk
- All items shown in the listing photographs
Hard Drive Not Included
This listing is only for the controller card, cable, and diagnostic disk. The Corvus hard drive has already been sold and is not included.
Testing Observed
- Evaluated with the Apple III system from which it was obtained
- Also evaluated with an Apple IIe
- The connected hard drive operated without displaying its fault light
- The drive could be heard seeking when access was attempted
- Drive indicators switched between Busy and Ready
- The drive requested a password and rejected the passwords attempted, preventing further access
Testing Limitation
The observed response suggests that the controller card and cable were communicating with the drive, but the password restriction prevented access to the stored system and data. Therefore, full read/write operation, formatting, diagnostics, and every card function were not verified.
Compatibility
The card was evaluated with an Apple III and an Apple IIe. Please verify compatibility with your exact Apple computer, Corvus drive model, interface configuration, cable requirements, and software before purchasing.
