Check out this link for K8E info:
http://www.tyan.com/archive/products/html/tomcatk8e.html

My limited experience is that floppy support of 2 drives includes a
cable w/ a twist and only 1 connector on the MB. It seems to me
that if you have a cable with the required twist in the leads you
can have a drive A & drive B. Nothing at the above site jumped out
at me. Floppy support is listed under "integrated".

If you need a manual you can try
ftp://ftp.tyan.com/manuals/m_s2865_110.pdf. I got all this info on
Google.

HTH, Jon
