They are supported by the Apple HS SCSI card firmware (at least the
documentation says they are - I've never encountered a device that uses
LUNs, so I haven't tried it), but I don't know about the original Apple
card or the GS/OS drivers.

I would be surprised if the RamFast supports them, but this could be
fixed with a firmware upgrade.
