The Microsoft Z80 card should work fine in a //e(it does in mine).  Of course, 
you need to make sure you are using the 16 sector disk with a 16 sector disk controller.
Also, the recommended slots for the Z80 card are 4 or 7, the printer must be in slot 1,
the boot disk drive must be slot 6.

I don't know about the //c.
