Well, here I go shooting my mouth off with less than absolute certainty, but,
Apple Pascal will fit on one 3.5" drive with a good bit of space left over.
To put it (Apple Pascal) on a harddrive you will need a dedicated partition.
A "Prodos" partition won't work since Apple Pascal uses a unique operating
system, i.e. not ProDos. Unless my memory is failing me, the original Sider
harddrives came with utility software to allow mapping one partition as
a Pascal device. I suspect there are other utilities out there to do the
same.
