Anyone have experience with the CFFA3000 in an Apple III+? I have one that
I've been using successfully in an Apple IIe, but have had no luck getting
it to work in the Apple III. I set switch 7 on, and tried the CFFA Apple
III driver, although I'm not sure exactly how that is supposed to work. I
have no floppy software for the Apple III+ and am not 100% sure it is
functioning properly. Any way to test the III+ without software or the
CFFA3000?
Thanks,

When you say, "tried the CFFA Apple III driver," what exactly do you
mean? The driver needs to be configured properly before the III+ will
recognize the card.
Also, what do you mean when you say you have no floppy software? None
at all? As is true of any Apple III, the III+ will only boot from a
floppy disk in the internal 5.25" drive, and you will need at least an
SOS floppy with the SCP to configure the driver and run the
partitioning program.

Well, in a pinch you can boot from the keyboard, if you don't mind typing in
a lot of hexadecimal.
