Some answers, i have a HSH SCSI interface, (it is for sale, incl 32Mb disk)
- No DOS2 builtin
- External power supply is very advisable, disks are powerhungry, especially
at startup
- SCSI interface is terminated internally in cartridge, you need at the
other side of the SCSI cable also a terminator. In general a total of 2
terminators, one at both end of the cable. That is true for all SCSI setups,
90% of SCSI problems are related to termination/cable errors.
- Any SCSI-2 disk will do. Small (256 or less) are useful and cheap because
of the 8*32Mb partition limitation. I have not seen a partition mapper
utility for the HSH interface

Which ones are they?

Talking about SCSI interfaces:
Which one is better: HSH or Gouda 1.001? (I can choose now)
What's the story about SCSI terminators?
What harddisks can I connect?
Do I always need a seperate powersupply for a harddisk?
Is DOS2 built in in one of these interfaces?
If so, does it give a problem since I already have DOS2 built in my MSX?
Etc!
Any useful answers will probably be put in The Ultimate MSX FAQ!
