[Coco] Any problem with connecting 2 floppies to one power supply?

Hello all,

I have a singel floppy drive system for my coco I bought back in the 80s.  I
have a second 5 1/4" drive to add to it and it fits inside the case, and I
have a cable which allows two floppies.  The power supply is the problem -
it only has one connector.  Is it possible to add a splitter which would
power both drives?  Does the coco ever access both at the same time, and if
not, can anyone see any problems with connecting 2 floppies to the single
power supply?

Thanks,
John Guin
