  Certainly.  I don't think you can use the "Quick Format" option in this
case, but that's the only caveat.

  [Ancient history note:  The 5.25" floppy disks used by the original Apple
models were "hard sectored", and thus different from the disks used by
virtually all other brands of computer at the time.  But that concept was
never applied to the 3.5" disks introduced just over 20 years ago by the
original Macintosh and later adopted by IBM's PS/2 line.]
