I have one, but I haven't used it yet.

I?ve been using SCSI2SD over a year with Emulex UC07, native MV 3100, Nextstep/Openstep
and Adaptec PC SCSI adapters.
Michael has been constantly improving the device and firmware. He worked out some bugs
that allowed me to use these under VMS 5.5-2; which was very picky about the scsimode
settings on disks of that era. Well worth the investment, especially if you are constantly
tinkering with your machines. Its async and doesn?t take advantage of
high speed microSD cards, but they outperform the real Seagate SCSI-2 Narrow 1-8GB drives
I?ve compared them to.

Subject: Solid state recommendations
Hi all
I have the following gear in my stable:
- Sun Blade 100
- SGI O2
- VAXstation 3100
- AlphaStation 500
- HP C3700
I would like to start eliminating spinning SCSI drives from these boxes for
noise, heat and capacity reasons. Could you kind folks recommend a
solution? I've seen SCSI to CF converters advertised but I didn't know if
there was one kind over another that people have been successful with or if
there is a totally different approach I should be considering.
Thanks,
Bryan
