3.5" floppy drives and half cube case

	I remember reading on one of the wearable pages that the 
half-cube case has a maximum capacity of 3 stacked PC/104 cards and a 
hard drive (although I can't remember whether this was a 2.5" or 3.5" 
HDD).  Would another possible configuration be two PC/104 cards (eg. 
CPU board and PD-5 display driver board), a 2.5" Hard drive and a 
standard 3.5" floppy drive?
	I think that the floppy would be useful for small file transfers, 
and other tasks which this technology has proven itself on over the 
years.  In addition a built in floppy would make it very easy to boot 
Linux in the event that the hard disk or file system crashed.  
Thanks in advance.
