I think the numbers are assigned based on the configuration, not on the types
of drives. ie- the first drive is 1, 2nd is 2. I'm not sure about this though;
you should check the IIGS Firmware Rerefence to be sure, or one of the
other Tech Refs that document the Smartport.
5.25" drives are not Smartport devices, btw.
