I've had success on a 4400, 6500, 7300, 7200, and G3 AIO with the Belkin
brand USB 1.0/1.1 PCI cards, but everything else is either picky or silly.

As for 68k Macs, the best source I found to transfer large amounts of data
is using a standard (non-USB) *Iomega ZIP100* floppy drive. The disks are
cheap, and I find the drives at thrift stores and garage/church sales all
the time for a few bucks.

I've never used a 68k Mac below System 7.5.3, so I can't comment on older
System OSs. (Only have a Classic, Classic II, Color Classic, 2 Duo 240c
laptops, and an LC heavily upgraded...well, I have a Lisa 2/10 that's dead
after 25 years of service, but that doesn't count)
