[Coco] 3.5" FD drives

[Bruce W. Calkins]

DS0, DS1 are the pads I was refering to.  DS stands for Drive Select.  DNS 
has some other effect on the drives behaviour, but ATM I don't recall what. 
If it works with it open, (Especially with a CoCo,) I'd leave it be.  I have 
one drive set that has three 3.5" drives and one 5.25" with one of the 3.5" 
drives switched with the 5.25" as CoCo DRIVE 0 or D/0 under OS-9/NitrOS9.  I 
did this by tapping into the drive select lines in the cable.  You will need 
to tap into the cable to use that 3.5" drive as DRIVE 2 or D/2.
