IIRC Macs disks had different density for different sectors. The sectors on the outside had more data than sectors on the inside. I'm surprised a PC disk drive can read those, I'd have expected that to be impossible. I certainly have never heard of anyone doing that while PCs and Macs with floppy disks were around.
EDIT: ok. it seems like this specific device is flexible enough. cool.
