Has anyone ever heard of the Typhoon floppy drive? I ran across several references to it recently while reading SWIM and New Age floppy controller documentation, and looking at the floppy drive source code from 68K Linux. Apparently it's a 2.8 MB ultra-high capacity floppy drive that made it pretty far into planning stages, but as far as I can tell it was never actually released. I think there may actually be support for it in some Apple ROMs, or at least in 68K Linux.
The only other reference to Typhoon that I could find was in this list of Apple project names: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Apple_codenames
