Most "real" SCSI drives were basically bolt-on adapter affairs to a
traditional floppy interface.   You can, for example, occasionally find
Teac FD235S drives for sale--and if you look, it's basically a
SCSI-to-floppy adapter bolted onto a regular FD235.

There were also some SMS/OMTI cards that served the same
purpose--floopy-to-SCSI.
