Can I switch between head 0 and head 1 while the computer is running? It would be a great way to simulate side A/side B.

About the drive and head switches

Hi! A few questions regarding the optional settings; head switch and A/B switch. Can I switch between head 0 and head 1 while the computer is running? It would be a great way to simulate side A/side B.

I might have failed to understand something about the drive A/B switch. The 3.5" drive can easily be set to A:, but then I lose the 3" drive. Should the switch be set while the computer is running also? Thanks!
