///SHH Systeme does make a card along the same lines as the Focus, called
Microdrive (two different versions too), but the BlueDisk is not this card.

The BlueDisk is a PC *FLOPPY* disk controller.  With a BlueDisk, you
can use your 320k and 1.2MB 5.25" floppy and 760k, 1.44MB, and 2.88MB
PC compatible disk drives on your Apple II.

Naturally, with the card and a PC drive, the Apple can read MS-DOS FAT
disks too, but you can also format ProDOS and HFS disks on the drives
connected to the card.
