The original 128k Mac was designed to originally use Twiggy drives. They had already done some of the test plastic molds of the cases when they decided to switch to the 3.5" disks. I don't think there were any Macs actually built with Twiggy drives, but some of the pre-productions Macs do have a larger disk opening where the Twiggy drive was supposed to go, but they were actually using 3.5" disks.
I think I read this in one of the very early issues of MacWorld. On Sun, Nov 14, 2010 at 6:56 PM, D.
