Modern machines can’t read the 400k and 800k floppy disks used by the Mac Plus. This a hardware problem, not solvable in software - they lack the variable speed motor of the old drives. I don’t know any reason why some company couldn’t now manufacture a floppy drive that reads the old disks, but I’m not aware of anyone doing so. So the only way to read such disks is to get an old Mac. See similar questions...

Most of the public access computers in the library have DVD/CD drives and a USB port for flash drives only. They do not have floppy disk drives.

For the FDHD (i.e. MFM format, high-density floppies), here's the word from Ken Nakata (kenn@eden.rutgers.edu): It doesn't work because we don't have any kind of documentation as to how to control SWIM chip directly. Calling ROM routines for the floppy is probably unwise since it will disrupt NetBSD's multitasking (ever noticed the frozen mouse cursor on MacOS when accessing the floppy?). for low-density floppies, Hauke Fath (saw@sun0.urz.uni-heidelberg.

Students are strongly encouraged to e-mail files to themselves as attachments or use a USB flash drive when they wish to move them between CELOP and home.

We make every effort to constantly update the virus protection software on the computers in the lab. We also hope that students with their own home machines will install virus protection on them. If you think you have acquired a virus on a floppy disk, you can bring it to the Help Desk (only with an appointment) in the basement of Andover Hall and we can try to fix it using basic data recovery software.

The floppy disk must be installed before the NYVIP machine will perform inspections. The NYVIP program requires that a dedicated analog telephone line be installed for each NYVIP unit on site.
