The Apple High Speed SCSI can handle those two drives
also. The LS120 needs the floptical driver, I think. The
Zip drive works great on the Apple card, but it does need
to be connected to another drive that supplies termination
power (otherwise you'd need to modify the Apple card
to provide term power...I've never done it because I also
have a hard drive on the SCSI chain). Most likely, the
LS120 provides term power, so just connect both drives
on the chain and the Zip should work with the standard
SCSI hard disk driver. So even if you don't have the
floptical driver yet, you still should have the LS120 on
the chain and powered up just to provide term power
for the Zip drive.
