Modern scsi drives in 68k macs are touchy enough, it's safe to say most do not work , or specifically they are not backwards compatible(enough) anymore. few are, the specific ones that are, are usually talked about on here or thinkclassic.org
I have to second that. Bought quite a few 80 or 68 pin SCSI drives lately and they all do not work reliably (if at all) with different 68k Macs. Would not have believed this but sadly it is true. 50 pin drives usually work but they are older and their hardware fails after all these years.
