WTF! No no no this would require to buy a scsi for your amiga then get one for the pc .. stress with cables terminators etc.not worth it. I would get a PCMCIA to CF card asuming you have a 1200\600... And use a card reader on the pc side dirt cheap and reliable... Other option is a paralell zip and modify a cable for the amiga side.. SCSI is a big no no unless it is a cdwriter as this is not stock on normal PC computers..
Huh? SCSI cards are cheap and usually easy to come by for A2000/A3000/A4000's, and are a good investment because they open many new possibilities for the Amiga. Some sidecar options for machines like the A500 include SCSI.
I picked up a SCSI Iomega zip drive from the local thrift store for $5. It has built-in termination which can be switched on and off, and I have no idea what you're talking about with "Cable Stress" because connecting it was very stress-free. I picked up a huge box of brand new, shrink-wrapped zip disks for practically nothing, and got more than I'll ever need. If anyone's interested, I'll sell 'em for a buck fifty a piece.
Not only is it a nice way for transferring files, it also provides you with a backup of the files you've transferred if you keep the zip disks intact.
