Well it would all _just_ work, but you are likely to have a very
crashable QL.
You will probably also have to rebuild your hard disk directory map
every once in a while. However this is a very very difficult job, and I
only managed it with the help of Phil Borman - who wrote the qubide
code.
I suffered this problem in my BBS in the early hard disk stages.
I had two separate all night sessions with Phil Borman rescuing my hard
disk.
All has been 100% OK since I started using Mplane.
