Since the M0130 was designed for Macs, not the Apple II series (which is usually the problem), why *wouldn't* an external 400K work? If you stick an 800K mechanism in that case, it should work just fine, so what's the difference? The more I think about this, the more I think there's no reason it won't work unless the SE/30 itself just doesn't work with 400K floppy mechanisms. the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
