I've got the BlueSCSI for expansion and transferring but I don't want to give up the comfy hum of the spinning internal drive. It's as much a part of the experience as CRT flicker. I will also say that the internal drive is faster than the external BlueSCSI.
I'm not brushed up on the interface so I'm hoping somebody has a way to clear up the confusion for me.
I've read that the latest SCSI standards can be adapted to the Quadra 610 but I do get confused by wide, fast, SE, LVD, SCA etc.
To keep things simple, can somebody suggest the best route to add a more modern drive (say 2005 or later) that I can use inside the Quadra case that doesn't require adding expansion cards and wouldn't be too hard to find a 5400RPM version? Almost every modern SCSI drive I find (starting around the late 90's) is at least 10,000RPM which is shrill and unnerving. If I can find a 5400RPM drive like the original then it would operate closer to what I'm used to in the noise department.
