>"It is my understanding that such hard drives are configured to work with a Mac Plus alone; their configuration is such that their contents couldn't be accessed by a more recent Mac."The Mac Plus required that you use a special format that put the next-numbered sector staggered every third sector around the disk. If you did not, the Plus was so slow it would miss the next-numbered sector if they were sequentially numbered, and still miss if they were every-other. The drive would have to endure an entire revolution of the disk to read the next sector.
