In a dual drive system, I imagine the second drive would be used as fd0.
There is even a connector for fd0 on the motherboard, but I haven't
tried it. The case has a hole for the second drive, hovewer the second
drive will not fit inside - the mount for the first drive and the HDD is
too low and takes the space where second drive would have to go.
