2) Plug all the drives into one control cable and
select the drives by
switching a control line on the control cable.
This is how I'd go, but the BIOS will only understand units 0 and 1,
you'll need a device driver for units 2 & 3.
Oh, and you'll need a *real* floppy interface cable, instead of
the butchered IBM-style floppy cable that *every* PC I've seen
has, except for the Zenith Z-150 family.

I haven't tried this yet, but maybe someone here has. Both my VS3100
m38 boxes have standard rx23 floppy drives on a SCSI-floppy adapter.
I've wondered if that interface is specific to the NCR5380 SCSI adapter
or if it would drive the rx23 on any SCSI bus.
