I'm restoring a few more 5150s and realized that,

hardware stores are being depleted, I'm just maggoty with SCSI drives,
from 40MB to 18GB. Can anyone recommend any 8-bit ISA SCSI adapters by
model, name, or whatever I can use to search for them on ebay?
Also, do such 8-bit adapters have an onboard BIOS? It would be great if
I didn't have to boot off of a floppy disk just to access the hard
drive... I have a CorelSCSI card at home, but when I plug it in it
doesn't do anything at POST, and I don't have a driver or software to
test the card anyway :-/
PS: If anyone knows of any sources for the ADP50 or similarly functional
8-bit ISA IDE adapters, that would be much appreciated as well. Thanks!
Seagate
ST-02
(I'm pretty sure that was the model designation)
I used a couple of them years ago... might have one buried around here
still,
but it would take an incredible effort to find it if still here.
