Re: 1.4M drive in a 800K case



So in that scenario-- Macintosh 1.4 drive on a Superdrive Controller-- if I
formatted a disk on the GS could I plop the disk in a Windows machine and
read the files, either natively or  with some converter software? Or is it
GCR or whatever instead of MFMl, and just can't be read?

Thanks,

John
