It is said that the ProDOS file system extension included with the LC //e card
software can mount ProDOS hard disk volumes. But it is necessary for the hard
disk to have a compatible Mac SCSI driver in a special partition on the drive.
The easy way to do this is to format the drive on a Mac. If the drive was
formatted on a II, the likelihood is that it won't be usable on a Mac.
