- I know the exact situation you are in...I had a Plus and a 735meg HD with
- it...the problem is not in the HD really, but the Plus (duh) but it can
- be fixed with software...you simply need to use SilverLining 5.28 or
- earlyer, not the current version that you are using...LaCie for some
- reason droped MacPlus SCSI incompatibility patching from the later
- SilverLining versions...the old version should work fine for you...
