Well, if you boot up a Mac with it connected and media inserted, it'll mount like any SCSI drive.
However, what you can do is open the case up and see what the make is of the drive. Hopefully it's Fujitsu. In any event, these drives are well supported even today. Even if it's Cannon, Maxtor, or Pinnacle, you should be able to get drivers for it.
I think you'll like it. You can still buy packs of newly manufactured media for it, and the higher capacity drives are backwards compatible with the smaller media. So if you were to get a 2.3GB drive, you can still use the 128MB discs with it.
They're sort of like a hard platter version of a floppy disk. They're very reliable. I have two 2.3GB Fujitsu drives myself. I use them for archiving my vintage software.
