I'm thinking on getting a SCSI controller and disk for my 386sx.  I'm
considering the WD7000-FASST2.  Here are my questions:

1) Can I keep my investment on my MFM drives and run both controllers
   at the same time? The MFM controller is a WD1006V-MM2.

2) How many floppy devices can I drive with the SCSI controller?  Can I
   add an additional floppy controller if it can only handle 1?

3) Can the SCSI controller drive my MFM drives? (Highly unlikely!)

4) Has anybody heard of the Always Technology SCSI controller? Any comments?

Please respond to this account. I'll summarize.
