You need a SyQuest drive to read SyQuest disks. Just like for Zip disks, there is a different drive for each storage capacity. A 44 MB SyQuest drive can only read disks up to 44 MB, and the 200 MB drive can read 44 MB, 88 MB and 200 MB cartridges, among others. SyQuest drives were connected to a computer via an SCSI connector[1]. Because we didn’t have an old computer with an SCSI port, and modern laptops are no longer equipped with this type of connector, we went in search of an older computer model. And we found a Macintosh PowerBook G3 from 1999, which has SCSI, USB and PCCard ports and can run on both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X operating systems. Additional software was needed for the computer to communicate with the SCSI device: SCSIProbe 5.2.1. And the Classic Mac environment (Mac OS 9) was required for this.
