Uh. Don't all of the Mac 3.5" drives lack the eject button? The only 3.5"
Apple drives I've seen _with_ an eject button were the IIgs-era Apple 3.5
and the UniDisk 3.5. The Mac 400k, 800k, and SuperDrive all have that
lovely pinhole.
What others were there?

BTW. This may be a stupid question, but...
Will a card that is being used to drive a UniDisk 5.25 on a IIe also
enable the use of a UD 3.5? I haven't examined the card greatly, but I
remember it being Apple, but not a Superdrive or a 'regular' Apple 5.25
controller. It's at school somewhere now.
