I have that GE-Soft host-adapter and I am planning to install an another
drive to keep company for my Seagate ST296N. 
How? Get a 50 lead flat and connectors or just a connector and press it 
in between the host-adapter and the existing drive, if you have room in 
the housing for second drive (do you have GE-Megadrive?).
If there is no room, connect that flat to the host-adapter and the drive.
Yes, it works! My drive is the M-Drive by Digital-Systems, using the same
host-adapter type as GE.
Did you remember to set the SCSI device number of the second drive.
Can be from 0 to 7. So, you have 8 DMA devices possible, each of them can
be a host adapter. To a host-adapter you can connect up to 8 SCSI devices.
Total of 64 HDs! Thinking about 64x1200 Mb CDC, 9 ms...
