Yes. I tried switching it but it still did not work. They both work
when they are daisy chained to the 3.5" drives but the second
5.25" drive won't work.  I thought they were supposed to. I
even tried it with and without RAM5 drives. I tried it with and
without the RamFAST HD.  Nothing seems to work. Both
drives check out in Copy II plus and both appear in good
physical working order except I can't daisy chain it. However,
I haven't tried it without the 3.5" drives.
