[comp.sys.amiga] Syquest & A2090

Can anyone tell me if the Syquest 44MB removable cartridge hard disk will
work with the Commodore A2090 controller?

I have a 2000, with an A2090 and ST-251 hard disk. I am going to need a lot
more storage for a new project.

Here is the setup I hope will work:

   1. Amiga 2000
   2. A2090 controller
   3. ST-251 mounted in the 5 1/4" bay
   4. Syquest mounted in an external box (self-powered), connected
      to the back of the A2090 controller. (will any drive box do?)

Is this going to be a simple plug-it-in, format, and run, process, or
are there going to be pitfalls (or worse, will it not work at all)?

Any advice, comments, etc. will be much appreciated.
