Just the one disk, it was pretty large for that machine. I had to 'wake' it quite frequently but I never had any trouble with connectivity/compatibility.

Before I started using a linux box for all my classic mac filesharing, I had a Performa 6110 doing everything since it's pretty low profile and already was bridging LocalTalk/EtherTalk.

I've had this issue with my SE/30 and in my case it was a bad Z8530 chip.

Thanks guys! The only link that worked was the pro 2.0 but that works for me, none of my macs wanted to read the 3.0 archives.
