i use it with a sparcbook 3 and a sparc station 4, both running solaris
2.x w/o any problems.

you'll want to add the following to your /etc/format.dat file:

# The following is the format.dat entry for an IOMega Jaz drive. 
disk_type="Jaz 1GB" \
         :ctlr=SCSI:ncyl=1018:acyl=2:pcyl=1020 \
         :nhead=64:nsect=32:rpm=3600:bpt=16384
 
partition="Jaz 1GB" \
         :disk="Jaz 1GB":ctlr=SCSI \
         :2= 0,2084864

there is a web page somewhere providing more info - as far as what
to do with a sparc running sunOS.
