Yes, I'm using a 340MB scsi drive (external)... Used it under linux and I 
was able to read and copy the entire content. This way I will transfer a 
bunch of 5.25 floppy and old personnal code for archiving...

Just a note : I've also burned several CDRW with Nero on my PC and been 
able to read them under GSOS without problem. Very easy to feed my GSOS 
volume with web downloads !
