Re: SCSI HDD to EIDE

You will probably need a SCSI PCI card

Re: SCSI HDD to EIDE

An 80 Pin interface is not Ultra SCSI but SCA. You can find SCSI to IDE converters for about $50 - $100 but a cheaper way to go is get yourself an UW SCSI controller card. A good card is the Adaptec AH 2940UW - $10 - $25.
You will also need an SCA to UW adapter and they run about $4 - $20.
