The SCSI2SD was designed to replace drives in legacy and embedded machines. Speed wasn't a priority as machines that take Wide SCSI and faster cards also can take cheap modern IDE/SATA cards as well.

Back to the SCSI2SD. I found out that there is a newer version that has much better performance. But it's still maxes out at 10MB/s Fast SCSI speeds. Time to make an Ultra Wide version. Or one that uses M.2 SSDs. SD cards tend to wear out when running an OS on them.

Now that FPGAs are becoming more and more affordable, maybe would be possible a SCSI2SATA or a SCSI2M2. Times are changing fast.
