AFAIK same for the DOS compatible drive (though a different card, not 
the //e).

I think somebody (must not have been Apple) did make some sort of drive 
that did the necessary interface juggling to do 5.25" //-series on the 
Mac. I was a bit too young to remember specifics, though. Perhaps AE. 
Pretty sure I've seen reference to it somewhere.
