If both pendrives are set up the same way, it should work fine.
For example, if you have "normal" usb pendrives, they are both set up as a single FAT (msdos style) data partition.
When DSL boots up, it sees the first pendrive and assigns a mountpoint for "sda1" and detects that it is a vfat (msdos/windows) partition and enters it into your /etc/fstab
You can then mount your first pendrive by either using the little Mount.app dockapp in the lower right corner, or you can open up Emelfm and go to /mnt and then Right-Click on sda1 and choose "Mount" from the menu. Or you can even mount it from an xterminal by typing "mount /mnt/sda1"
When you are finished using the first pendrive, you should unmount it before physically unplugging the device. Either use the mount.app tool again, or go back into Emelfm and choose "Unmount" for /mnt/sda1 on the menu, or type "umount /mnt/sda1" inside an xterminal.
Then unplug your device and plug in your new one.
Then repeat these steps to use your second drive.
