I presume this is SPI (SCSI Parallel Interface). I doubt you'll find any current products that adapt USB/SPI. It was kind of a niche market even when it was current. Also, all the ones I knew about were slooooow. If you really want to do software overwrite on those drives, I'd look for a PC with a PCI/SPI adapter, and use that. If you don't have a PCI/SPI adapter lying around, eBay has lots for cheap. (eBay might have USB/SPI too, but if you're buying something, I'd suggest avoiding the USB stuff.) Myself, I'd just do physical destruction. Remove the covers, remove the platters from the spindle, and then go at the platters with a metal grinder. You can also by degaussing wands if you want something slightly less messy, but the ones that work are expensive ($1000+). -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
