Actually, I believe it was the other way around. Apple first coined the term FDHD, then superdrive (which they later used for DVD burners).

Introduced in 1988 under the Trademark name FDHD (Floppy Disk High Density), the subsequently renamed SuperDrive was known primarily as an internalized floppy drive that was a built in part of the Macintosh computer; however, an external version of the drive was manufactured that came in a Snow White-styled plastic case.
