My SCSI drives are not that stable anymore. I am therefore considering byuing a SCSI to SATA converter.

Anybody have any experieces with that kind of converters?

I am specifically considering this one - or something similar:

Thank you in advance.

I have a few 18GB SCSI 2 Wide LVD and 74 GB U320 drives I could let you have cheap if that would help.

Thank you, but I think I will go away for SCSI drives the next time I have to change. They are simply to noisy compared to modern drives :-)

I can understand that.
10 and 15K rpm drives are a little noisy (I just like the throughput).
And I could let you have a drive at a price that is a lot cheaper then the adapter you're talking about.
