    The Apple //c+ did not use a UniDisk 3.5 drive.

Um, does not _require_ a unidisk, but it is an option. As it stands,the IIc+ has essentially extra hardware on the main board to cache thedata coming from the 'dumb' 3.5" drive to replicate the function of theunidisk controller board inside the Unidisk drives.


They will work though.

Thankx,
