From what I read, the main issue preventing easy mix and
match of SCSI disks is making sure that the driver uses
the same command set as the controller. To this end the
ANSI X3T9.2 Committee is considering a proposed standard
called CCS (common command set).

I have not gotten my December software supplement, so I
as yet don't have any idea what is going on inside the
Mac+.

Does Apple supply a SCSI device driver, and if so what
command set does it use? Is it CCS, homegrown, or perhaps
the set command set used by a popular controller?

If Apple is not supplying a device driver, do they at least
publish some command guidelines that the third party
SCSI suppliers are using?
