yep, my bad... 2 on drive 1 on non drive is the norm

as bigyinn says, either works, but it will affect chainline, I have my spacer (73mm shell) on non-drive currently as running 1x9...

I fitted one yesterday and it was 3 on the drive side and one on the non drive side.

Unless you have a mech mounted or chain device.

With 4 spacers fitted check the crank splines are engaged properly

2 on both sides for me but thats only because the old BB exploded abd shaved a few mm off the non drive side. but it should be 2 drive and 1 non.
