I was under the impression that "Apple SCSI" is not the same as
"REAL-WORLD SCSI", just like "Apple Nubus" is not the same as
"REAL-WORLD Nubus" (notice a pattern?)  I don't see the point of
adopting a standard, if you pervert it for your own evil
purposes....Apple!

Anyway, my Quantum CMS-80 drive ALSO has a unique ROM chip, written by
CMS, to implement "APPLE SCSI".  I suspect that if you buy a generic
SCSI drive, it won't work.
