It seems I have got the original firmware.

To ask another stupid question: Is the UniDisk 3.5 drive the disk drive
that came with the Apple IIgs? I also have an Apple IIgs and a Mac SE.
The Apple IIgs Drive works also on the Mac SE and has a eject button.
(It's the only Apple 3.5" drive I've seen, which has an eject button.)

At least I know what I'm doing over the weekend! :-)
