The SE/30 can handle 800K disks with no problems (unless someone changed
the drive...). You will need Disk Copy 4.2 to create the disks.

I have an Apple II Workstation Card that will let my Apple IIe, using
ProDOS 8, talk to ASFS. It is possible, but I have not done it yet myself.
Someday I will set up an AppleShare server for my Apple IIs but I simply
have not done it yet.

See the following site for information on ASFS v3:
http://lowendmac.com/tech/appleshare3.shtml.
I do not know where to get it. I just missed it once on Usenet; by the
time I contacted the owner it was already gone. It had version 2 and 3
with all the disks and manuals, too.
For more help, try Usenet at comp.sys.apple2. That's where I learned most
of what I know about networking Apple IIs.
