I'm looking for information regarding how well the New Apple Drives in the new IIx, SE/30, & IIcx deal with the old formats. Specifically the 400K & 800K disks. If a disk is formatted 400/800K on new drives is there a good chance of it being able to read by an older drive say in a Mac +. I haven't heard of any problems, but then again I haven't been looking. Any information good/bad would be appreciated. My apologies if this subject has already been beaten to death and I missed the discussion. -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\|///////////////////////////////////////// David M.
