I don't see the benefit of investing the time to do it, when a person can
put pretty much every piece of Apple II software in existence on a 2GB SCSI
drive and use the drive with Apple's SCSI card, or a Ramfast SCSI card, etc.

20 MB or 2 GB?  Easy choice.

I suppose if someone just *had* to have a hard drive for their IIc they're
stuck since the IIc doesn't take external cards...  But why adapt a Mac
drive?  Isn't there some compatible Apple product?  A Sider maybe?
