  12. Is it possible to use an apple IIc 5 1/4 inch external floppy drive with a
  13. mac classic to convert prodos files to macOS using Mac file exchange?
  14. I ask this because a friend tried it and said it worked fine, but
  15. immediately afterwards the classic barfed badly and his logic board was
  16. fried.  Before I try it then, I would like to know whether the drive
  17. somehow caused the problem or not.  Any advice is greatly appreciated.
  18. Thanks.
