I had the chance to try one with my Elaborate Bytes QuadIDE adapter + IDEFix97.
Except I wasn't able to mount PC-HD-floppies correctly, it worked fine, especially when installing both HD floppy and superdisk with HD-Toolbox.
Then they are also bootable, just like a HD.
IMHO the LS 120 is only good when you get it cheaply second hand, as it's speed and capacity is lower than of the also as SCSI-available ZIP-2-Drive, and, as long as I don't fiddle out how to use it on PC-HD-floppies correctly, it's no help accessing those.
And when I would have large floppy-disks, I would look for a HD-floppy-drive ( when they would still exsist somewhere :/ Someone willing to sell his HD-floppy to me? )
To use superdisks, my idea is: Install them with HD-Toolbox, just like a SyJet-drive.
