To my knowledge all Mac Plus machines have 128K ROMS.  Did you mean,
"Which version of these ROMS"?  I understand that there are several
ROM revisions, but I don't know which one my machine has.  How do I
find out?

Perhaps you meant, "What kind of machine did you use for the MFS tests"?
I used the same machine for all tests; on a Mac+ you have the choice of
formatting a disk as an HFS volume or an MFS volume.
