[Coco] Coco 3 - 1 meg or 2 meg upgrade?

Well, here's what I've got so far:

CoCo 1, 64k with a CoCo 3 keyboard installed.

CoCo 1, 64k with the chicklet keyboard.  Also has the old style keyboard connector on the inside.  This one is an accidental purchase, made in order to get the disk controller that came with it.

CoCo 3, 128k.

I also have the one disk controller (long cartridge, but it's new enough to work in the CoCo 3), a tape setup purchased from Cloud-9, and a DMP-100 (also came with the disk controller), and finally a floppy drive in a TRS-80 external box which arrived today.  Untested at the moment.  Also a 1.2M floppy that should function as quad-density and an old CD-ROM case to keep it in.  Also untested.  Joysticks (2x annoyingly bad, non-self-centering ones, 2x "deluxe" joystick, and 1 huge, pistol grip thing...), mouse, and some various cables.
