Well, that's what I thought as well but if I format in the PC, the Mac claims it isn't initialized and proceeds to format it. I've tried a few floppies and had the same experience.
I was able to copy to the floppy using HFVExplorer since I did format it on the Mac. I just wondered if I should expect to be able to read a PC formatted floppy on the SE/30.

You should be able to format in PC/IBM/DOS format on the SE/30 instead of Apple's HFS (depends on the System you use). Likewise you should be able to read and write PC formatted floppies on the Mac. Does it work that way?
