None since the driver in the APPLE_DRIVER partition doesn't do anything
on a IIgs.

SCSI manager 4.3 supports multiple SCSI buses and asynchronous data transfers.
So it's good to have so long as you have at least an '040. Older boxes can't
use it.

Here's a question: why worry about having a driver in the APPLE_DRIVER
partition at all, 4.3 savvy or otherwise, if you don't have a Mac?
