Hi to all Coco users!

I am dusting off my old coco's and have a question.  I apologize if
this is the millionth floppy question on here.  I called the local
used computer store and the man said they have a large bucket of 5
1/4" floppy drives they sell for $5.00 ea.  But he doesn't know if
they are 360K or what.  

My question is, will any 5 1/4" floppy drive work for transferring
files from a PC to a Coco?  I should mention that i have a FD502 stock
single sided low density floppy in the coco.  Should I get 2 and put
one in the PC & one in the coco?  By the way I have a coco2 64K and a
coco 3 128K.  I don't have OS-9 yet, i would like to download
NitrOS-9, and other programs.

Any help would be appreciated.
