It will work but within the abilities of a ][/][ plus.

- You will not be able to automatically boot from it no matter what
slot it is in.

- If you're running ProDOS then you must have ProDOS 1.9 or less and
  have 64K RAM.

For that last point, if you have a 65c02 (or accelerator) in your
][/][plus then you should be able to use ProDOS 2.0 or greater.  I've
heard this works but never tried it myself.

ProDOS versons 1.0 and 1.0.1 will run in a 48K system however
BASIC.SYSTEM will not.

These are the only reasons I can think of that would prevent you from
using a Liron card / Unidisk 3.5 in a ][ / ][ plus.
