I always thought that SCA-80 was a relatively recent
addition to the SCSI fold, but a few months ago I acquired a Seagate(?)
1GB drive with an SCA-80 interface. So it's obviously not as recent
as I thought.
That connector has been around for at least 15 years. I think I saw a
500MB Seagate drive with an SCA connector once, but those weren't
common. There were lots of 1GB and 2GB drives with SCA connectors.
The oldest machine I've personally used that had internal SCA
connectors is a SPARC5.
My Sparc 2 has SCA connectors for the internal drives.
