it seems to be quite cheaper than acard.
are there any better alternatives?

Bit pricey... :)

You can find some good one on ebay a lot cheaper like this one,

Looks like a decent adapter but a bit pricey though.  Here's one for $79

Those adapters are all for Ultra Wide SCSI-3 80-pin SCA2. Probably work with Cyberstorm MKIII/PPC but not with other Amiga SCSI cards without yet another adapter.
