Re: Should I get two floppy drives?



Thanks for all the advice.  I'm definitely going with 2 drives. I am
looking on Ebay for a Apple II, likely the e model.  I grew up in
middle and high school using Apple II's. I remember the e specifically
and know it's a step up from the original or the + and I'm not sure if
it's worth getting the GS.
My question:  I know I obviously need a drive controller card and many
on ebay seem to have these and come with one drive.  If I purchase  a
2nd drive separately will it hook into that card also or do I need a
2nd card.  I wasn't sure if they may 1 drive cards.
As well, where do most of you get your software?  I had a few things
when I was going through school but threw it away since I never had a
Apple II.  I always dream of one but grew up with a Commodore 64. I
used to enjoy the Apple, the basic programming, etc. so figured it
will be a great hobby in my spare time.
