Can also read, write, and format DOS disks, so you can transfer data to and from PCs $359. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q1: Is this floppy drive fully-compatible with FDHD-initialized floppies? Q2: Is it really any faster than a FDHD drive? Q3: Has anyone tried installing this within an original Mac II? Don W. Gillies, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Illinois 1304 W.
