Will my Macintosh Plus 800k Disk Drive work on my Apple ][e? I checked and
the cords inside the 800k DD will connect to the ][e. But will it work?
 
==> The 800k disk drive inside a Mac Plus will work with a IIe _if_ you remove
it from the Mac Plus, get the shielded D-19 cable that connects from the back
of the drive to the special disk drive card you also need to acquire, and
connect all the pieces.
 
==> It is the hard way to do it.  Alltech in Oceanside, CA sells the interface
card (619) 724-2404.  They will sell you a refurbished 800k drive in an
external enclosure.  They might even be willing to sell you just the D-19
cable.
