Is this an FDHD or upgraded SE? No, it's a plain vanilla SE with 20 Mb Miniscribe and 4 Mb ram.

What OS are you running on the SE? 6.08 I think

Are the disks locked? No

Do the disks work properly on the internal drive? Yes

Do you have another external drive to test on the SE?: Many, they work fine

Do you have another compact to test the 400K drives on? (we need to rule out the SE): I think so. I have some SE/30 but they might not work properly for that. I **Think*** I have one 512k Left.

Finally, they are Sony OA-D34V. Not Sony OA-D34V-22. if the -22 is the most recent one, it's odd since many ejector parts are plastic on the OA-D34V. The other working 400k drives (OA-D34V-22) have are 100 % metal ejector parts. I can send you pics.

Is there any cabling difference between internal and external drives ? Because the drives might come from 512 or 128 k macs... I remember that one pin was left unconnected in the internal ribbons of 128 and 512k macs...
