I think I'd quite like something that made an
entire PC look like a SCSI
device, making archival/backup onto modern media trivial (or quick
selection of different drive images). I don't think there's a natural
interface on a modern PC to do it, though; it's basically USB or
nothing, and I don't think there's a way of making a PC's USB interface
act as though it were a slave device being controlled by something else.
I've used FreeBSD to emulate a FC device, and while that was a few
years ago, I'm fairly certain that SCSI is also supported if the local
SCSI adapter supports target mode (the Adaptec AIC-7something chipset
was one).
A little googling suggest that the targ(4) driver is your starting point.
