You can only use the PCMCIA SCSI if there are drivers.  So probably not.

But, Yes.  Since you have the Squirrel already you should be able to attach most any SCSI device to that.  Just don't get anything over an 8x CD-ROM or slow HD as you'll not be able to take advantage of the extra speed due to PCMCIA bottlenecks.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Yes, use the Blizzard SCSI.  It's faster, DMA capable, etc.  That way you can use the PCMCIA for an Ethernet card.  You can probably sell the Surf Squirrel for a good amount on eBay too.
