![]() On Macs with OS 7.x and later, IIRC, you get DOS compatibility for floppy reads and writes with nothing extra necessary.Ĭonsidering the cost of appletalk to ethernet bridge devices, forget about it. You can try using WinImage to dupe an old 800k floppy disk, but I doubt that it'll work for you.Īlso, some later Mac's in the Mac II series, IIRC, did some weird crap to the 800k/400k format floppies and would read them as only single sided when they were in fact double sided (the 800k floppies). New Macs and PC's (always) use the standard crap 1.4MB floppy drive, and forsake compatibility with the 800k and 400k floppy drive of the old compact Mac. The 800K and 400K floppy drives in older compact Macs have a very hard time using them in a PC, given that the formatting requires that whackass variable speed crap in the old Mac's.
