I'm looking for a tape drive to use with 386bsd.  I currently have a 
Conner 120M IDE drive (yes, it's a bit cramped).  Is it possible/
economical to use a SCSI adapter and tape drive without changing to
a SCSI drive as well?

Can I put something together for <$500? Or should I forget the idea and
use the money to get another/bigger IDE drive.
