Not true. The ZipDrive works quite fine with the Apple HS SCSI card (and even I'm told with the Rev. C card). I ran my //e for years with a ZipDrive 100 as my "hard drive"--each disk partitioned into 4 partitions. 3 partitions were 27 or 28 meg in size--can't remember which--while the boot partition was 10 meg in size. It held all my programs while the other 3 were used for data storage. I use the now-freeware QLab's EasyDrive as my drive manager.
I still use EasyDrive, but these days I'm running everything from one of Rich Dreher's CFFA cards instead. The ZipDrive is still hooked to my system, but I use it mostly for backup usage--still 4 partitions, but now of more equal size, and using Doug Gum's now-freeware TimeOut program Volume.Backup, I can put one of the CF's partitions onto each of the ZipDrive's partitions.
Now if I can only remember to back everything up as often as I should....! :)
Later.................Howard
