2. I would guess they use the same drives as the beige G3s, as the G3 AIO is to the beige what the iMac is to the B&Ws.
3. As far as I know and can recall, no system extension is required for floppy drive. That should be handled in hardware by the SWIM chip.
There is an old Apple admin software package called At Ease. It's possible it might have been able to set something in the PRAM to disable floppy support, but a) I've never heard of that, b) I've never used At Ease, and c) I can't (easily) find any online documentation. Do you have any extensions with At Ease in the file names?

I have a bunch of Molars (G3 AIOs) that I got from a school auction. Every one of them seems to have the floppy drive not working.
1. Can you imagine why?
2. What other Macs use the same floppy drives? Did the 5xx0 series of AIOs use the same?
3. Could it be a software (system) problem?
