RE 3.5: drives

A few years ago, I picked up an unusual 3.5" drive at a garage sale that was 
designed for the Apple II.  It was a single sided, 320k drive.  It came with 
it's own controller card.  It also worked with the standard Disk ][ 
controller -- but only as a 160k drive.  It came with it's own patched 
version of ProDOS.  It was called a "Shamrock."
 
Guess I could make good use of it for storing data on disk I wouldn't want 
anyone else to access.  Of course, if the drive ever failed, I'd never be 
able to access it, either!
