I have an Apple //e, a Unidisk and a Duodisk.
When I use the Unidisk by itself, the drive is called D1.
When I use the Duodisk by itself, the drives are called D1 and D2.

If I plug the Unidisk into the computer and then daisychain the Duodisk off the Unidisk...
the Unidisk drive is called D1 and the first Duodisk drive is called D2.
How do I address the third drive aka the second Duodisk drive?
Or is it even possible?

Thanks,
Andy
 
Not possible.

An Apple II can have up to two 5.25" drives, and (with controller support, such as a IIc+ or a IIgs,) up to two 3.5" drives. But cannot have three drives of one size. (At least, not without some third party hardware.)
 
Perhaps you mean two drives per controller? I can certainly have up to four drives: S6,D1 S6,D2 S5,D1 S5,D2
