  Depending on the type of fdd there were definite
sequential settings,
 so using an A drive as a B drive and vice-versa was not possible without
 setting them up. 
Disk][s don't have any setup (apart from internal speed/alignment
servicing).  Whether a drive is Drive 1 or Drive 2 depends solely on which
of the two connectors it's plugged in to, on the controller.
