I got a se with a se/30 board in it and I also have a SE FDHD board (Which idk works), but would it work in the se?

The SE, SE FDHD (aka SuperDrive) and SE/30 logic boards are all interchangeable, so it should work.

The SuperDrive floppy mechanism will work with the SE logic board, but it'll only read/write 800k floppies.

The analog board/power supply is also interchangeable. In fact, pretty much everything is. They're all quite similar (aside from the logic board, the differences are mostly cosmetic).
