I created this side-by-side pinout diagram back when I accidentally connected my Daystar Turbo040 accelerator (intended for a Cache Slot) into the PDS pass-thru slot of my TS Adapter, installed in my SE/30. That resulted in one of the ASICs getting fried on the Turbo040 (it was later repaired by Belle, with help from JoeTheZombie). Having this diagram makes it easier to see what will short if you mistakenly connect a cache card into the PDS slot of your SE/30. It also comes in handy when you want to measure voltages at the Cache or PDS slots.
