As reported over on Conquests, I just have acquired my oldest Macintosh yet, a nice-looking Plus.
Having (ahem) a plethora of peripherals in the perimeter of the Plus, I think I might as well configure it to work with an external scsi hard drive. Are there, however, particular things I need to be aware of before hooking it up to an external drive? — or in using some of the lower System versions (say, System 3, with which it shipped, I gather) with an external scsi hard drive? Does it work with standard HFS or do I need a dedicated "Plus" scsi drive formatted differently?
I know little to nothing in the hand-on sense of Macs this old and so would appreciate a bit of help.
