Sounds like the drive you'd use with a PC Transporter...a run-of-the-mill 5.25" DSDD drive that uses MFM and puts 360K on a disk. The mechanism, if removed from its case, should work with any x86 box (I haven't run across one yet that doesn't have a floppy controller on it). On a II, I would think a BlueDisk (?) would be able to use it as well, but it's not a Disk II-compatible device.
Hmm. Wonder why it was plugged into a standard Disk II controller. Maybe the thrift store just pieced it together to look "good" for the display, without bothering to test it.
