i don't think you can use 2 floppies.
why would you want to do that?
maybe there is a better solution

ok, kool, thanx

I have two floppies in some of my machines, too. I guess it depends on what you mean by "silmultaneously". Having two floppies will make disk copying a lot quicker and easier, because instead of having to insert and remove the disk being copied 2 or 3 times in the course of the job, you just stick the original in one drive and your blank in the other, then use the disk copy command under DOS.

But that is the only thing which I know of where you can use two floppies at once. As far as hooking them up is concerned, you need two floppy power plug lines on your supply, (or a splitter); and a standard twin floppy ribbon cable.
