Syquests come in two flavors:
Non-scsi for MsDos
and
Scsi for Mac, APPLE, etc.
Most any Syquest advertised for a Mac should work just fine.
You don't need any special software; just the GS' Advanced
Disk Utility. Look in any Mac magazine for prices, and when you
order ignore the salesperson's ignorance about Apple IIs. (Don't
ask and they won't display their ignorance.)
