The nice thing about SCA drives is that adapters for narrow- or wide-SCSI are/used to be
available. I've run SCA drives with old Power Macintoshes, for example.
I don't know if it's still true, but high-performance SCA drives do tend to run

I have one or two of those adapters somewhere. Any SCA drives I've used, have been
quite hot, which is why I run them in external enclosures intended for them. It's
rare to find ones that run at less than 7200rpm, most are 10k or 15k.
