You need either a CS II (comm slot 2) ethernet card which are very
rare, or a PCI card as the 5500 has a PCI slot. There are usually a few
on eBay around �10.

Hey there
I've got an older 5500/275 which I don't really use. I've also got a
large number of SCSI drives containing some older stuff I'd love to
use.
I realise that I could purchase some kinda SCSI->USB or Firerwire
bridge, but wouldn't it be cheaper to get an Ethernet card for the
5500?
Then I could connect it to the rest of my LAN and as the drives are
attached to the 5500, I could get the stuff I'm interested in off and
onto DVD.
Only question is what kind of Ethernet card do I buy? The 5500 is
running OS 9.
Thanks
