Drives 2 and 4 refer to the 400K "volumes" on a second physical drive. The
intention was to make things easier for programs which (not unreasonably)

It may be worth doing some searching on the web. There were a number of
patched FID versions around, in most cases they were originally done by
poking some data into a BLOADed copy of FID then BSAVEing it again. I would
be surprised if you couldn't find an article describing this.
