Somehow, a 30GIG/external drive case for my 605, combined cost a little over $200, doesn't sound very expensive . . . .Acard IDE-SCSI converters for Macintosh - 68k's too! http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/IDE/IDE_to_SCSI/ide_to_scsi_adapter.html

Brand new 20gb SCSI HDD for $70, where? Besides, in two years I'll be able to use the same adapter to put a 200gb drive on the microquadra for another $70. Since I've already got the 50pin adapter on the back of the G-4, I'll use it to adapt the faster bridge to the slow macs and be able to hook it up to the G-4 at full speed.jt

the i/o bandit takes no prisoners! the bridges sound like a good deal to me, straight SCSI or Firewire bridge external kits aren't a WHOLE lot more reasonable than ACARD's box.IMHO, of course,
