That depends. I need SCSI disks that are less than 1GB, those are much
harder to find.
Would anyone be interested in a device with the footprint of a 3.5in
hard disk drive, which allowed SD or CompactFlash cards to be
connected to a SCSI bus?
Maybe. I personally don't see the need though, as SCSI hard drives are so
incredibly common that I don't see the need to make replacements for them.
Maybe in ten years, but at the moment, SCSI disks are plentiful.
What *would* be incredibly useful (albeit much more
complicated) would be
a modern replacement for an ST506 type drive - something that is getting
harder to come by.
Definitely agree with this one. Emulating RD53 and RD54 would be great.
