I'm interested in getting an inexpensive internal (or external) tape backup for
an IBM PC clone.  I currently have two floppies, and will not give up my B:
drive. 

Most of the DC2000 units I've seen connect to the floppy controller, thus
allowing you only a single floppy.  I have heard that Mountain makes a drive
that can be daisy-chained from the B: drive, thus allowing you both floppies.

Can anyone confirm/deny this claim?  Yes, I know that you can get a separate
controller for the tape drive, but seven of my 8 slots are already full and I'd
like to find a "slotless" solution, if it exists.
