Teac made SCSI floppies which were used by SGI and others; one of my
Indigos has one, and a couple of friends have them too. The floppy is a
more-or-less standard FD-235, except that most have a motorised eject. The
SCSI card is an add-on, albeit a very compact one.
If you don't want the SCSI cards, I can use them :-)
