The drives to use with a HS SCSI are the original CD SC, the CD SC plus,
and CD150. These use the proprietary Apple command set which the system 6.0
drivers use, hence they are plug 'n play. You can't get full support from
the SCSI-2 drives like the CD300 and newer without additional software. The
single speed proprietary drives are $50 and under nowadays, and are plenty
fast for IIgs use.
