Age yourself with your first computer.

Those disk drives look very similar to the Apple II disk drives. Did Apple just take some standard disk drives and slap their logo on them?

I think all disk drives at the time used mechanisms from the same few companies and added their own enclosures and software.

You're right. Apparently the company which produced those drives was Shugart Associates. Apple used those drives, as did SOL and also the Commodore PET. Nice.
