The Superdrive floppy disk is a 1.44M PC format capable Apple drive. It can read 800k Apple disks, 720k PC format and 1.44M formatted floppy disks when hooked to a the right controller.
The other more recent Superdrive does not work with the Apple II and is for burning DVDs.
Oh yes, on a Mac the floppy drive works as advertised, on the II you will need the Apple 3.5" controller card, aka 'superdrive' controller. The 'Liron' card will work with Unidisk 3.5" 800k drives only.
