The interface is simply called "ST-506". The HD20 had a DCD to ST-506 controller in it.
Reading the BMOW blog, someone mentioned a device that plugs into the floppy port and allows PC style floppy drives to be connected to the Mac.
“The Kennect Rapport is a small dongle like device that attaches to the floppy drive port of an early Mac
(like Plus, SE, SE/30). Easily recognizable by the small size, the port underneath and blue screw knobs.
The Kennect Rapport by itself and attached to a 800K floppy drive can read/write/init 720K PC disks,
as well as an advanced 1.2 MB format.”
“When used in conjunction with the Kennect 2.4 Drive it adds HD read/write/init capabilities to any Mac
(including Plus/SE) as well as access to HD PC disks. It can also format HD to 2.4 MB in size. Probably
the best thing is to be able to read HD disks on a non-HD Mac.”
There is one on ebay for a sky high price if interested in what it looks like. It might actually be a DCD spec device that supports removable storage.
