I don't think so, Deivy. 'item 1 of (every disk whose name is "deivy")'
is a single Finder reference to the first Finder item (as indexed
internally by the Finder) on every such disk. It returns an AppleScript
list of Finder references to the individual items.

'every disk whose name is "deivy"' returns an AppleScript list of Finder
references to the disks themselves. The first item of this list is the
first of those references.
