Also, as long as I am on the Pismo topic, I want to get a floppy drive for it. I found an Apple Tech Note that says the Pismo can use the Lombard drive modules (but not always the other way around). I was under the impression the Lombard has a floppy drive available for it. Can anyone confirm that I can in fact use a Lombard floppy in my Pismo? I'd rather get a floppy drive that uses the drive bay over a USB based one.
Or does anyone know of a 3rd party floppy drive module that works with the Pismo?
Thanks!
I have a VST SuperDisk module - they are often on the Smartdisk web site as sale/clearance items, or of course on eBay they are also cheap. It works fine in OSX, OS9 required a driver which is still available online.

I also use the VST SuperDisk removable module with my Pismo; if you're not familiar with the SuperDisk, it will also read and write traditional floppies. I also have an external USB version. I remember there was an issue with copy-protection-key reading for DigiDesign ProTools floppies that would only work with one version and not the other; unfortunately I can't remember which.
