And if someone told you that if you jump off a cliff and flap your arms you
could fly, would you try it? HD 20s flat do not work with Apple IIs, and
you probably stand a good chance of roasting something trying it. Those
drives are kinda hard to come by and people who need 'em will give some decent
$ for 'em sometimes. The only hard disk which works with //c's, that is 32K
ROM //c's and //c pluses, is the Chinook "c" series. Sequential sells 'em now,
last I heard.
