Second Try:

Is there any way, perhaps through a specialized ProDOS device driver, to keep
interrupts active (particularly from the Super Serial Card) while writing to
the Sider hard disk?  I'm wondering if the Sider has enough "smarts," unlike
the regular Disk II-type devices.

Such an arrangement would allow buffering of input from a remote system while
writing to disk, thereby preventing loss of data with systems which do not
obey any sort of pacing.

Thanks.  I'll summarize to the net.
