Apple HD80 SC

I just recently got a working HD80 SC from a former teacher of mine, and I am pretty excited as this is the first Apple-branded external drive I have ever had. It appears that it was initially paired with the Classic that I got from her as well. Anything in particular to know about these drives?

 
The PSUs aren't particularly troublesome in my experience. I have 3 tape backups, one 40SC and one CD SC that all share the same PSU and only one is acting up. 

My 40SC has a Sony drive. No idea what Apple went with for the 80SC. I hope it's not a Quantum!

Also, one last thing, the feet for these things are unobtainable.
