I found 2 of them at a thrift store, (100mb) and both worked just fine. I'm always on the hunt as they are very convenient to transfer large files.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE scsi. But it super sucks in certain use cases.
I wanted to put scsi into my main PC I have on the workbench. but doing so meant I would need to hard reset the machine EVERY time there was a change to the SCSI bus. I thought the solution would be a USB/SCSI adapter, and I did find one, but its compatibility is 9X/XP only. I even thought of installing a PCMCIA scsi card and dock into the bench system, but again, I was effectively limited to 9X/XP.
I'm actually gathering parts for a TWEENER system with everything I could want in a XP system. quad floppies, scsi, sata, the whole works.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
