Hi guys,

The SCSI drive in my old IIGS broke, and I need to get a replacement.
There are a ton of old SCSI drives available for purchase here in
Japan, but I'm wondering which ones will actually work. I've seen an
Ultra Wide SCSI, SCSI II, and a 9GB SCSI drive for about 16 bucks at
the local used computer shop. What should I be looking for, and am I
going to be limited in HFS partition size?

Well for the Prodos partitions you will be limited to 32 MB perPartition. Then for the rest of the drive you will be limited to the HFSpartition size.. I believe it is 4GB
