The Acard/ Sonnet 66 & 133 IDE cards all see the ATA cards as SCSI in both Mac OS 8/9 & OSX The VST ATA 66 and Sonnet ATA 100 (made by Promise/VST) cards both see the card as IDE in Mac OS 8/9.x and to confuse everyone see them as IDE in OSX ! It took a bit of work to find this but I belive that is correct info. So there should be no surprise that SCSI software works with cards seen as SCSI by the hardware.
