Also known as the Macintosh 512K/800, or model M0001E. This could be considered a Macintosh 512K with the Mac Plus ROMs and the 800K floppy drive. It lacks the RAM expansion and SCSI port of the Mac Plus, though the ROM would certainly support it. The pictured hard disk connects to the floppy drive port.
