SCSI disk mode is not an issue; the Powerbook 150 (like all the 1xx 
Powerbooks between 140 and 150, and the 170) does not support SCSI ID mode. The SCSI 
port in the back is only for connecting external devices.

Perhaps there is some limitation to the size of the hard drive because the 
highest OS that can be used is 7.6.1, (8.1 w/ some help, according to LEM), but 
that would be it.

(Incidently, the Powerbook 150 is KINDA on topic for this club, as, unlike 
the other 1xx powerbooks) its motherboard is a modified Duo 230 board...
