FWIW the ref to the 4 FDD driver file is now located (via the Wayback 
Machine .. {#) )

Within that zip-file is the only folder named "Driver", then within that 
folder is one named "ide", and within that are a number of folders. The 
one numbered ex-3110 is THE one with 4 FDD driver. "Sunix Floppy Driver 
enables PC/XT/AT Systems to handle up to 4 floppy drives"

In case you want to update your website ref. ;-) My interest two months 
earlier I'd come across my 1/2ISA "FDC-344" card.

(#) The ref. URL was pasted into a ref. text file regarding the 
mathematical work of William Henry and Grace Emily (nee Chisholm) Young. 
Mr. and Mrs Young did outstanding work (roughly) from 1895 thru 1925. 
The theorem for WHEN second partial derivatives, X then Y, and, Y then 
X, ARE equal (otherwise not) is named after them. Surprisingly, no one 
thought that needed PROVING till circa. 1900. They also wrote a book 
about Differentiation and, maybe, the first book of Point-Set Theory. 
British born but trained in Germany, 1880's.
Young, William Henry 1863-1942;  Young, Grace Emily Chisholm 1868-1944
