This morning I was reading Tom Lee's Classic Mac Repair Notes, and he says that apparently you can use a SuperDrive in a pre-SuperDrive Mac, but it will behave as an 800k drive. I have a SuperDrive in my Quadra 700 that I don't really need, so I'm thinking..maybe I could remove it, and stick it in my Macintosh (upgraded to 512ke status with 512ke/Plus ROMs), and get it going again, as I don't have a working 800k drive for it.
So, would this really work as intended? I know that Tom Lee knows what he's doing with the Classic Macs...just that I thought I'd read warnings before of bad things happening if you connect a SuperDrive to a pre-SuperDrive Mac.
