Looking at my dead Plus Hardcards (one Plus Hardcard 40 and two Plus Hardcard 
IIXL 120s), I wouldn't expect it... looks like some sort of proprietary connector.

Speaking of which, the BIOS EPROM on these things tends to go bad over time; 
they won't boot a machine and I can't access them even though a 386 can "see" 
the hardware present (on the IIXL 120).  I'm close to throwing them out; anyone 
want them for trade or free+shipping?
