Can I retrieve my old data from the MacintoshPlus or Micronet hd?

My first computer, a Macintosh Plus was connected to MicroNet hard drives and they worked for a long time and printed to an ancient ImageWriter. But the Macintosh Plus/Micronet set up recently failed and the old MacWrite files cannot be retrieved. I would like to retrieve some personally important data. The data is also present on a floppy disk (in a MacWrite application). Can you help me?

Yes that info can be retrieved. You will need a machine with a floppy drive, preferably a “super drive”.

Maybe just a machine with SCSI drive port.

Is the hard drive SCSI internal or external?
