I think it's been said on the Net already, but I'll be brief.

The Unidisk 3.5 will NOT work on a GS, because the Apple UNIDISK 3.5 is
a "smart" device. The Apple 3.5 Drive (no "Unidisk") does not have as much
ROM inside since the GS knows what to do with it.

Someone did post that the Unidisk 3.5 can be modified internally to work
with a Macintosh; I don't know if the same can be done for the GS. If you
haven't committed yourself to a Unidisk yet, you probably don't want to if
you plan to use 3.5" disks with the GS.
