If you can tolerate reformatting/repartitioning, get my GenEx
hack I just reposted to comp.binaries.apple2, and try ADU again.
ADU looks for a file named "GenericMacSCSI" to put a Mac driver on
non-Apple drives. GenEx isolates the Apple driver out of ADU for you
and lets you slap it on any drive, an abuse and not guaranteed to
do or not do anything, but it's worked for me on old Quantum 40 and
100 Prodrives and Syquest 44's.
