obviously i need a double ended floppy cable (of which i have) but i can only use df0 as my other drive does not work both together but both drives do work individually?
You can't do it without extra hardware
http://www.amiga-resistance.info/bboahfaq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=54&id=2293&artlang=en Probably very rare and expensive now, I don't know of anyone making an alternative. It wouldn't be hard though, you should also be able to do it by hacking up an external drive.
With two drives connected to the internal header you'll have problems with external drives, unless you patch the motherboard as well.
