Yes, the reverse also will work.  (Even better, perhaps, because on a DS drive
it is sometimes necessary to cover the SS hole in the jacket.)  The SS hole
would be roughly half way between the DS hole and the vertical center line.
*BUT*, the only really accurate way is to make a template from a genuine SS
disk and use it to locate the hole.
