Macintosh SE

Macintosh SE

Compared with the Macintosh Plus, this model added an internal bay for a hard disk or a second floppy drive and an expansion slot, both firsts for a compact Mac. It also added a cooling fan and the Apple Desktop Bus for the keyboard and mouse. SCSI throughput roughly doubled, and faster memory access made it about 10 to 20 percent quicker. The 9-inch screen and 8 MHz 68000 did not change.
