I have an Ampro Little Board, and have read and written a wide variety of 
disks on it.  Don't know about the ATT box, it came out since I stopped using
that machine as my primary (own a unix box now, you know how it is...).  I
wish you luck with the Apple disks though, the controller uses an entirely
different concept for storing information on the disk.  I've not seen a 
standard disk drive ever be able to read/write from one.  I worked for a 
dealer for a while, and so aquired a bunch of apple hardware.  Neat, but
very incompatible with the rest of the world.
