The ESE interface uses some expensive parts, which makes it
technically superior to any other I/F.
Hm. It's better because it's more expensive? Not quite my idea
of quality :-)
Your statement is the same as
saying: "I'm not willing to buy a Turbo-R because an MSX2 is way
cheaper"

ESE guys are selling Mega-SCSI, built with 256 Kb of SRAM, for less than
US$ 180 (shipment included), I think. So, you should talk with them, from

I guess the external SCSI-model couldn't handle SCSI ID 0???
External ZIP SCSI handles only ID 5 and 6.
No prob for the Bert-interface. If you've got a HD hangin' on ID 0 for
booting, you can use all other ID's. You just can't boot from the ZIP-drive.
But hey! Who's got a SCSI-interface but
Hi,
Is anyone able to make Megascsi over here (in Europe or The

Here in Brazil, Ademir Carchano (ACVS) make MegaSCSI for about
US$200. A friend of mine bought one and it works perfectly.

In my opinion, european hardware makers must learn a lot from ESE
staff... (but also needless to say, ESE hardware is very expensive).
Another thing European developers should improve is SOFTWARE to go
with the hardware. I was told megascsi has Excellent software

Yep, I'm not willin to pay about Hfl.300 for a Japanese SCSI I/F,
where a European one costs no more than half that price...
Another thing European
