   Hey retro people

   Is there anything like the Startech SATA to IDE adapters but for SCSI?

   Literally does a SATA to SCSI adapter exist yet

   I know there's lots of "slow" SCSI stuff for like OG Macintoshes, but I've got some SCSI Ultra160 capable devices and I wanna max them out

     @CursedSilicon You can usually plug SATA drives into SAS cables and have them work, but that's not helpful here. :blobfoxgoogly:

     @tk SATA and SCSI are fairly similar, it seems like the kind of thing a cheap FPGA could probably do. The "ACARD AEC-7732" exists but nobody ever cloned it

     @CursedSilicon I wonder if you could plug a SATA drive into a SCSI to SAS converter. :blobfoxthink:
