   The card,Apple Super Serial Card, seems okay. I think the drive has failed.   
   I have a doohickey attached, an APC SCSI Sentry, and it seems the card is   
   communicating with the drive. I'm hoping the drive I ordered, due Saturday,   
   will work out.   
      
   I was just wondering my options. The SATA drive/card is in a spare IIgs and   
   formatted and software installed for that machine and I'd like to leave it   
   that way but if it will work in a //e and can be formatted with the   
   utilities I have that would be an option.   
      
   SCSI2SD I've looked at briefly some time ago when I heard of it. I thought   
   they were in short supply due to chip shortages or do I have that all wrong?
