Certainly there was. It was offered with either a NuBus card or an
SE PDS card.

Won't read Apple ][ disks though. It was only for 360K PC-format disks.

The Apple ][ card for the Macintosh LC might be able to connect to a
real Disk ][; I've never had an LC (with or without the Apple ][ card),
so I couldn't tell you.

And as non-Apple floppy drives for the Mac go, there was the DaynFile, which
was a nice two-drive box with a SCSI interface. It could be configured with
a mix of 360K, 1.2M, and 1.44M PC-format disks.
