So been thinking with SSD drives becoming the norm I was going to try one on my Video Toaster Flyer. Is there such a thing as an affordable SCSI to SATA adapter? Ive seen some but they are well over $100 and that seems outrageous.


This is something I am planning to do with my 4000T/Flyer setup.  I'm trying to keep everything in the A4000T case and keep noise/heat/power to a minimum.  (3) 2.5" SSD drives for the flyer definitely help accomplish that :)

I've been looking at ACard's for a while and the SATA > SCSI ones are expensive and I have yet to see one on eBay at a less than retail price.  

I'm using an IDE > SCSI ACard on an IDE SSD drive (connected to the WarpEngine4040's SCSI) for an Amiga drive.   The IDE > SCSI ACards can found on eBay for less than retail, but IDE SSD drives are about twice what a similar SATA SSD drive costs.

I may have to look at the suggestion Acill made on using an SATA>IDE adapter between a SATA SSD drive and an IDE>SCSI ACard.....
