All my PCI slots are taken up.
All three? Isn't there one card you could move or sacrifice?
I would like to know what is the best featured/most reliable option for adding SCSI for this machine, that doesn't use a PCI slot?
You covered the options, which are few, rare, and probably not optimal.
I have heard of PCI expansion racks to add more PCI slots; are these any good?
Even if you had an expansion rack, where would it go so you could mount the cards? This would seem to be kludgy unless you plan some serious mod work to adapt such a rack into your G4. There are old Macs with 6 PCI slots which would be cheaper for the entire Mac than adding such an expansion rack.
