If it is an 800k drive is it possible to put in a superdrive without

to change anything else? I know on my SE the rom chips have to be

but they are soldered to the board therefore it still has the 800k
drive. I
really need a superdrive in the SE/30 though.
Mac 128, 512 & Plus cannot be upgraded to a superdrive. An SE or Mac
II can be upgraded with a new drive, SWIM controller chip and ROM
upgrade.
Everything later than those models, up to the iMac, have superdrives,
including the SE/30.
I read this as "excluding the iMac and later models". IOW, the beige
G3s including the AIO which is marginally on topic here were the latest
Macs to have a floppy. The iMac, first (clamshell) iBooks, G3 B&W and
follow-ups didn't. Somebody found the lack of a floppy drive in the
iMac so bad he made a comic strip of a guy disguising as an iMac for
Halloween who scared the s%$t out of his buddies because "he didn't
have a floppy drive" - aaarrgh! Too bad I don't find the URL in my
archives... If I do I'll send it, the pics were funny.
Have fun, OM
