I had a go at using both 3.5" and 5.25" in the DVI at the same time. I was able 
to create a boot 3.5" boot disk and had it booting from the 3.5" drive. Of 
course the problem is that the format of the 3.5" disk bears no resemblance to 
the TPPD/TPPD2.

The reason for doing it is that we can. Do we need any other reason?

It's been a long time, but IIRC there was no problem using the 3.5" disks; of 
course you didn't gain any capacity and they did still only store 360KB. Are 
any of the other folks who played with this still on the list by any chance?

The 4-drive version shown was only a mockup IIRC, but I see no reason why it 
couldn't work with a couple of switches to switch between 5.25 and 3.5.

Unfortunately I can't remember now why we did it... ;-)
