Spotted this browsing through eBay and I have never heard of such a thing before
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jukebox-...Apple-accessory-for-SE-II-series/233085219255
This holds up to five floppies and feeds them into and out of a MacSE or II on request. I remember when setting up both of my SEs that because of the lack of space on the internal 800k floppy drive, the boot files and partitioning software had to exist on two separate diskettes, which mean embarking on a swapping frenzy. Something like about twenty swaps until both Sytem 6 and the software (Lido 7.56) had loaded. I can't think, that aside, what could persuade someone to invest in something like this apart from maybe mutlti-disk games. The SE shipped either without a hard disk or with an optional 20MB HDD, which didn't leave a whole lot of room for software.
Has anyone ever used anything like this?
