What is the experience with the SCSI2SD with old
computers? It looks to be
SCSI-1 and SCSI-2 compatible and I see a lot of reports of usage on this
list. I am curious about how well it works and which version to get.
Depends on the machine and the OS. Worked well in a PowerBook with MacOS,
but NetBSD on my IIci threw all kinds of problems with it. Works great in
my Solbourne S3000, but opened the SCSI fuse on my rare PowerBook "800."
I don't know if v6 is appreciably better. Most of my experience is with v5.
Odds are it will work but it's not a panacea, nor (in fairness) is it sold
as one.
Some observations in more detail:
