I have several different types of IDE-SCSI adapters (Acard ARS-2000FU, SCM PCD-50b (SCSI multi-card adapter), and others), and I'll give them a shot in my IIci, as soon as I finish unpacking, from my move. I've had good success with these adapters on a variety of other SCSI-I-based machines. - Alex -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
