SCSIDE Controller
« on: April 14, 2003, 02:00:14 PM »
I want to buy this controller.
It converts fast IDE drives to UW SCSI3 drives.

I heard some people using these kind of adaptors on Amiga and BlizzardPPC and CStormPPC SCSI3`s.

Has anyone tried these? Would they run on Amiga?

If it does work, this is the best storage solution for Amiga as SCSI is too expensive.

I probably will buy two of these.

What harddisk models do work with this controller + amiga?

Would it work with new 120GB hdds? Are there newer technology drives than udma133? (i heard about newer technology drives being sold) Should I go for udma133 drives?

I was thinking to buy a Seagate Baracuda (they are udma133 and 100 models of those drives i think)

Do I need a terminator on the SCSI chain? I also will connect my SCSI3 Yamaha CRW to CStormPPC SCSI (its currently connected to 4000T`s internal scsi2)
