I am currently using an Apple Profile 10Mb hard drive on my Apple //e.  It was
loaned to me by a friend for use until he needed to sell it.  Well, the time
has come where he needs the cash and he is giving me first dibs at the drive.

I also have a GS at home and I'm wondering about the compatibility of the
Profile with the GS and with GS/OS.  Obviously, if the drive does not support
GS/OS it will be of limited usage in the future.  I know there are FST's for
SCSI drives and newer CD drives, but I'm not sure about the Profile.  I would
check it except for the fact my GS is about 300 miles away.

Would the Profile run any faster with the GS?  I have a Transwarp right now in
my //e and it does seem to run faster with that slot accelerated.  It may just
seem that way, but I'm not the only one that noticed that.

Any help would be appreciated,

Mark Teskey
