That's right, but the dual drive, which probably would have been
marketed as the DuoDisk 3.5" was never actually released, most likely
because of the very high cost. It's still a cool thing to have - heck,
even UniDisk 3.5"s are hard enough to find these days.
The rest of it is of course pretty regulation stuff, and not
particularly good examples.
FWIW, the logic board in the UniDisk 3.5" can support two drive
mechanisms, so a sufficiently determined person can add an AppleDisk
3.5" as a second drive with a bit of shuffling about.
