I'd like to add it to my current system consisting of an ICD case with host adapter and an ST157N-1. I'm pretty sure that the drive I'm getting will be MFM or RLL. I don't have an OMTI or Adaptec controller (which cost around $100, right?), so would it be possible to connect it to the SCSI controller already on the 157N? Can't the embedded controllers control two drives? I know I'd have to change some DIP swtiches or something so the host adapter can recognize the second drive. Is there anything I'd need? Thanks for the help.
