Applied Engineering TransWarp TW1340 - Information Wanted
- Thread starter Eric's Edge
- Start date
I don't know anything about it other than someone on reddit recently found an AE TransWarp TW2340 accelerator in their Classic.
Apparently they also made a 25Mhz version for the Classic without SIMM slots.
Also, a link to possible drivers and some discussion of the TW1340 and that connector on the upper-right I found on 68kmla: https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?thr...g-macintosh-se-accelerator.40775/#post-441957

I have looked everywhere and could not find documentation by Applied Engineering for the Transwarp 13xx or SE.
However, I found this. You can select AE Transwarp 1300 or SE in a CDEV to use the AE HD+ 3.5" disk drive on a pre-FDHD SE.
There should be a user guide for Transwarp 13xx or SE...somewhere or someone!

I have one of these guys and a Control Panel I can dig up for you that gives you some tools. There's also a product called "Virtual" that will let the SE see the memory on the AE card, so you can have an SE with a 68030 and 16MB of RAM.
Fortunately, it's working. The hard drive still had the driver - Warp30. Benchmarks from Snooper show that it is working and wow is it fast.
I'd just love to get my hands on the original documentation if there is any out there.

And this is what AE Warp030 CDEV looks like.

Hi
I just acquired the Mac Classic version of this accelerator (TW2340). Similar to some other posts I’ve found, I can’t get the card to recognize more than 4MB of RAM (despite 16MB being installed).
@ScutBoy Can you confirm you have used Virtual with a TW1340? It seems that these cards use an 68EC030 processor which lacks an MMU and therefore isn’t supported by Connectix Virtual. If you have a version with a full 68030 that would be interesting as the sales material for these cards shows Virtual is not supported. Are you able to post a picture of your card to confirm if there are other differences?
@Eric's Edge Did you install more than 4MB on your card? Are you able to access it? Can you confirm what the AE Warp 030 control panel shows when you click info for both Physical and Logical memory?
Thanks!!

I did not ever sort out the additional memory. However, I believe Dave from Dave's Vintage Apple Tech may have. I sold the board to him a while ago.
That board is long gone from my collection, so I can't verify what happened at the time, but I'm pretty dang sure I had 16MB of RAM running under Virtual with that one.
Sorry I can't be of more help!
