Before I got my GS I had a IIe with a DuoDrive and a Unidisk 3.5.  in order to
daisychain the DuoDrive onto the Unidisk, you need to remove a resistor.(I
don't remember which one though.:(  Ask your friendly neighborhood Apple
dealer, the tech should be able to tell you what to do).  Daisychaining to an
Apple 3.5 does NOT require removal of this resistor.  BTW, this is running on
an Apple 3.5 inch drive interface card.  It will also work on a IIgs
smartport.
