It's [2]. Win2k assigns information by location, and the slimbay is a
different location than the jack on the back, so it thinks you may have
two. I *think* that this also happens if you put a PC Card in a
different slot (but I could be wrong about that, that might have been
Win98).

Subject: 600x and FDD

I've just noticed recently my system shows up 2 floppy drives

A:
B:

Up to recently only A: was available.

Is it because:

[1] A: is the external and B: is when I slot it in the slimbay?
[2] I foolishly pulled out the slimbay cartridge and later slotted in
the
FDD into the slimbay without disabling the bay first?
[3] something funny happening in Win2000
