Mac Vintages and the ability to make ProDOS Disks...

["Warren Ernst" <wernst@gmail.com>]

All,

I seem to recall reading that at a certain point in the Macintosh's
history, its ability to successfully read and write ProDOS 3.5" disks
got clobbered.

Does anyone know when?

Or more specifically, will the Quadra 650 I just found in my storage
facility be able to make ProDOS disks OK? Or must I revert back to my
IIfx (also in storage) for this task?

I know the IIfx has the "auto inject" floppy drive, while the Quadra
650 has the later "manual inject" floppy drive.

Thanks,
Warr
