I have previously proposed here a SCSI-to-SD
interface; I've only done
preliminary brainstorming on it, but think it should not be too hard. The
SD card interface is very simple, both from a logic and electrical point
of
view: if you don't care much about speed it can be done with SPI. (the
speed
should be sufficient to keep up with 68k Mac, Amiga and Atari) All logic
can probably be done in a single AVR or even PIC chip, if you run that at
3.3V, the only additional hardware is the SCSI level shifters.
After seeing this project http://micha.freeshell.org/ramdisk/index.php
I'm very inclined to at least TRY something on this area. Seems simple
enough for trying.
