Well, I ask:

Does there is a device already invented to use common SCSI to drive 
SMD drives in between?

	Not foolish at all! ;-) There is indeed at least one SCSI/SMD bridge board
I know of. Adaptec made them, but they're not easy to find. Model number
was ACB-5580.

	I have exactly ONE of these that I need to hang onto to test drives.
