That's interesting. So how did you eject the disks? Or does the IIgs
know how already? I've never used a IIgs before, just IIs and Macs.
Of course, the real test is: will an HD drive work? It should at least
need a SWIM chip (the same one used to upgrade a SE to support 1.4 meg
drives) to replace the old IWM chip, but it may need a new driver, too.
