   Both is possible. You can have a cartridge that installs a driver which   
   makes the cartridge show up as a regular drive - like a ramdisk or harddisk,   
   only read-only. In that case, it will use any available drive letter from   
   "C" up, just like any other disk drive - BTDT.

   Using bankswitching, you can have more then 128k, and with a driver that   
   maps the disk as a normal drive, this will be transparent to the application   
   - if it runs from harddisk, it will run from such a cartridge.
