Oh, ok.  Wasn't aware of this detail.

Can't remember to have ever seen a pc with more than two floppy drives
(as-in: physical hardware).  And even two floppy drives is pretty rare.
Only in the early 90ies, while the transition from 5.25" floppies to
3.5" floppies happened, it was somewhat common to have two drives (one
of each type).

cheers,
  Gerd
