on a USB -> disk copy

Even easier if you have all the bits to hand, SCSI tends to require a selection 
of cables, adapters and terminators to make it fly

A DC power cable and 50-way ribbon may suffice for an RZ-25

They are expensive.
Can you get a scsi drive and attach it to your mv ? Doesn’t it have an external 
connector?
Or buy an older cheap desktop and  use your scsi cards.
I have an old Dell desktop that i use for ide drives and also have a pci scsi 
card to use.

Good idea!
But do you know an inexpensive USB-SCSI adapter? The last time I was looking 
for one I only found a few that were REALLY expensive, unfortunately.
I own some older ADAPTEC PCI SCSI adapters, but that does not help me with my 
notebook.

Nice program.
Has the resultant backup been tested? I mean can you restore and boot it?
