   1.44 MB floppies work fine as 720K floppies. Just use DDDS floppies. These   
   don't have the HD hole in them, just the write-protect tab. In a pinch,   
   cover the HD holes with electrical tape until you find a DD disk source.   
   Since the drives are 1.44, they should work. I've never had problems with   
   3.5" disks, but the 5.25" disks are a different story. If you have drive   
   select and RDY jumpers, you should be good to go. If you use an IBM-style   
   floppy cable, you have to undo the twist.   
      
   I have a 4P with dual 3.5" Chinon 357 floppies and have also put a pair on   
   my Model I.
