- > Does MAC use the same type of SCSI HD as PC use ?
-
- I have a Syquest 88MB that I use on a Mac SE/30 and a PC w/ an Adaptec
- 1542b. On the PC I can use a DOS formatted cartridge. On the mac,
- running Access PC I can use DOS & Mac formatted cartridges. I have also
- used an EMAC 60T teac tape drive (from the MAC) on the PC with GNU Tar.
-
- I think early Macs could run drives that supported only a subset of SCSI
- & those drives might not work w/ the PCs. But any of the newer
- removable drives will certainly work. And (newer) regular hard drives
- will work if you reformat.
