I began looking for a USB to SCSI adapter and it

that while there have been a couple over the years, they

lack of demand, but then when I look for used ones, they
are all (what I consider to be) ridiculously priced. What's
the deal? Does anyone have a solution for this? I suppose
an old mac or sun box and an ethernet is the solution I'll
use as I want to be able to load up images onto SCSI drives
for my PDP11 w/SCSI interface.
Get yourself any of the scsi2sd-flash emulators.
Much cheaper, software is open, so you can even play a little.
USB is a pain in the neck ...
On the USB2SCSI you still have to have drivers...
Most of them don't even have (last time I checked) 64bit drivers etc.
So one day you have an machine to maintain to use the eusb2scsi :(
