The IIc doesn't have any slots, so it can't use this (or any other) card. Since the card works on the II+, it must be the original Apple SCSI card. (The high-speed card requires a IIgs or enhanced IIe.) When you get the card, make sure that it has the revision C firmware installed, which has "341-0437-A" written on the ROM. (Revision A is 341-0112A, revision B is 341-0112B.) Revision C added support for CD-ROM drives, fixed a potentially serious problem with the command set, and is required if you want to use the card under GS/OS on an Apple IIgs. I'd expect any of the drives you mentioned to work fine under GS/OS. There are two significant restrictions under ProDOS-8 (and presumably ProDOS-16 as well): 1. You can't access more than 7 partitions on all drives connected to the card. Each partition is limited to 32 MB, so you won't be able to access more than 224 MB in total. (You have to be running ProDOS-8 2.0.1 or later if you want to access more than four partitions; with ProDOS-8 1.2 through 1.9 you will only be able to access four partitions if the SCSI card is in slot 5; in all other cases you will be limited to two partitions.) 2. The firmware on the original Apple card doesn't know about removable hard drives. It will be able to use the SyQuest drives as if they were fixed drives, but if you want to switch cartridges, you would have to reboot as a safety precaution. Whichever OS you are using, you might run into termination issues. The original Apple SCSI card does not supply termination power (unless modified). The most reliable option is to use a SCSI hard drive which supplies termination power. From past experience, SyQuests don't do this as standard. (I have an SQ44, but I always had it connected at the same time as a Rodime or Quantum which did supply termination power.) In addition, the card is not terminated. If you have a single drive connected, then it should be terminated (either internally or with a piggy-back terminator). If you have two or more drives connected, you must terminate both the first and last drives on the chain.
