Apple SuperDrive and 800K Disk Drive Compatibility



I have a Macintosh II with an 800K floppy drive. I want to upgrade to an
Apple SuperDrive (formerly Apple FDHD). Can I still use the 800K drive and
have a system with two floppy drives?

When upgrading a Macintosh II system to include a SuperDrive, new ROMs
(Macintosh IIx ROMs) and a SWIM chip (replaces the IWM) are installed. The
800K disk drive from the Macintosh II is supported and will continue to
work as before. For more information, search under "Macintosh II 800K
Drive".
